I'm quite new to linux and Unix, and I was going through the /etc/shadow file and a user had its hash starting with $1$(MD5), but the user has a UID and GID >99 so I assume that the users security is not as important as say root. Would this be a potential security threat to the system? If so, is there any way to change the hash from MD5 to SHA-512?
