Looks like a PAM problem. If you've previously installed debsums, I'd
suggest the following:

    debsums libpam-modules sudo

This should pinpoint any damaged/corrupted files related to this issue.
You can, of course, bypass the PAM authentication with:

    user ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL

but that would still leave you with a bad pam library or binary
somewhere. If all else fails, I'd forcibly reinstall all your pam
and sudo packages.
