Title:
  Double tapping enter will reveal password

Status in sudo package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: sudo

  When you type in a sudo command, accidentally tap enter twice, and
  start typing your password, it is displayed on screen as below:

  sudo ...
  [sudo] password for user:
  passwordSorry, try again.
  [sudo] password for user:

  This seems to be happening because there is a small delay after
  entering password and action. This may be partially related to bug
  #130636 or bug #335584. This seems to effect all versions of sudo.
