I'm pretty sure this is a bug in gnome-control-center. I'm pretty sure
that is where most users configure the 'nopasswdlogin' membership (via
the 'Login without a password' setting under 'User Management')

No administrative actions possible (password refused) after enabling

Title:
setting nopasswdlogin removes user password
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
When user wants to setup login without password, user adds to
nopasswdlogin group (it is fine), but actual password is removed as
well. This makes impossible using the sudo or gksudo command if user
was in adm group.
Workaround is booting in recovery mode and manual setting password to
the user.
