There's a fun RHEL bug that is also probably in other distros due to how dbus works. When the system dbus-broker is restarted on update, something fails to recover and everything that wants to talk to dbus will wait doing nothing until it times out on every request. Of course su and sudo are affected, so if this happens and you don't know what happened, have fun waiting a minute for every invocation of sudo or su to complete.

@phnt @mia @navi su and sudo on RHEL are affected by dbus stuff?? o_O PAM shenanigans?
