[sudo-users] sudo Problem with Session Management

For my old sudo ( installed with package manager ) ,
it takes every virtual terminal , x-terminal as different session.
So previous authentication will not effect other sessions.
e.g. when u make a successful authentication in tty1 ,
you turn to tty2 but need to type your password again
( not same session , so not authenticated )
But the official source code does provide this feature ,
once u type in your passwd , in a few minutes , you are authenticated
everywhere , it's a security problem .
Do i need to look for a patch ? Or it's problem with PAM Module ?
Default installition has these library linked :
-lpam -ldl -lcrypt
