[Bug 924732] [NEW] sudo not hide password when typing

[Romanos Dodopoulos]

Public bug reported:

I just run a script from my desktop for updating the system and sudo show my password while I was typing. This happened 2 times.
I have take and a printscreen, you can see that at the attachment.

P.S. There is nothing to do about ssh (relative bug).
