Could you apply this patch and see if it helps here ?

Subject: [PATCH] sstate.bbclass: provide an exception for useradd scenario

Packages, which depend on users/groups created from other packages,
needs "shadow-native" as a build time dependency. So, add an exception
to the "shadow-native" from otherwise discarded native/cross tools
dependency.

Fixes [YOCTO #11960]
