Public bug reported:
I was changing my sudo password to a new password and this is what
happened:
```
~$ sudo passwd
New password:
BAD PASSWORD: The password is shorter than 8 characters
Retype new password:
passwd: password updated successfully
```
- I tried to use the new sudo password and this happened:
```
$ sudo vi /etc/passwd
[sudo] password for ... :
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for ... :
Sorry, try again.
```
The old password worked, meaning that we have incorrect logging when a
short password is entered twice.
