sure, you are right.

by the way , another question is: why redhat assigns a 7.5 score for it ?
AC is network, and AI is high. 

nscd provides caching for accesses of the passwd(5), group(5),
       hosts(5) services(5) and netgroup databases through standard libc
       interfaces, such as getpwnam(3), getpwuid(3), getgrnam(3),
       getgrgid(3), gethostbyname(3), and others.
