CID Font should be based on one of the CJK fonts.
When you check the font information in the properties, are you trying to handle a document that contains those fonts?

 

Also, in the case of documents generated by other than Adobe products, the font information may be incomplete and the error may have occurred.
If you just want to avoid error, you will try to improve it by convert fonts to outlines fonts in preflight and making it into a figure.

This is just a random name made up by an app. It doesn't tell you what the original font was called, and there is no way to know. You also can't even make up a replacement with that funny name. This is not editable. You could try deleting the whole text block and adding a new one with a similar looking font.
