This might be caused by an incorrect PS1 (prompt) variable. You must ensure that any non-printing sequences in PS1 (colors, etc.) are enclosed in \[ \] characters. See <https://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/053> for details. If changing to PS1='\$ ' or something similar makes the problem go away, then you know it's your PS1 causing it.
