Likely this is a problem with your PAM configuration. PAM is basically
the arbiter for who can change permissions and how. Perhaps you
have removed something which should be asking for the password, or you
have added something which caches (or negates the need for) the
password.

So, in summary, check /etc/pam.d/**.
