No industry standard requirements exist.
It is somewhat unusual to have full fillets with such severe voiding.
The condition is a relative reliability risk for severe environments (e.g. under hood).
However, from experience, I'd say wetting to the pin more likely correlates to the expected damage accumulation.
Often the dissolution of pin base metal into joint is poor when you have this kind of voiding.
That's what I'd check for.
Regardless, the hardware is very likely conformant, unless you have some customer specific requirements I haven't run into.
As for root cause, I'd check to see if they did pin-in-paste.

Subject: [TN] Through hole barrel voids
Hi everyone,
We have a certain board with several through hole connectors. The customer has provided us x ray images showing voiding in the barrels. Fillets on both sides are acceptable, and the solderability tests are ok. This seems to be isolated to this board because random sampling on other boards shows virtually no voiding. The only voiding "criteria" I can find is related to BGAs. Is there any published criteria / reference material for this type of defect?
Thank you,
