And what do you suggest to use otherwise to maintain a server? I am not aware of a solution that would help here? As an attacker you could easily alias any command or even start a modified shell that logs ever keystroke and simulates the default bash/zsh or whatever.
With aliases in the bashrc you can hijack any command and execute instead of the command any arbitrary commands.
So the command can be extracted, as already stated above, this is not a weakness of sudo but a general one.

No you can alias that command and hijack the password promt via bashrc and then you have the root password as soon as the user enters it.
As root:
Anything else?
There are many ways to harden against it, but “just disable root auth” is not really it, since it in itself does not add much.
No, that’s not how it works.
You really should stop talking shit about things you know nothing about.
Truly sad.
