It is an insulting adjective, although depending on the context it can also show admiration. It was clearly intended to offend through the mother, but ended up as a qualifier for a "bad person," for someone harmful who can't be trusted. See guacho, bastard, malparido, ahijuna, son of a stray, fruit fig, the whore who gave birth to you.
