I tried installing Const::Fast and it runs sudo. Why is such a
blatant security risk in a CPAN module? And are there more?

Do you have a file called ~/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm? If so, are there any
lines mentioning sudo in there?
No, none. The only config files that have it are:
./perlbrew/build/perl-5.16.0/cpan/CPANPLUS/lib/CPANPLUS/Config.pm

Well that rules out one possibility, so we must be getting closer!
Please can you run:
$ cpan -J | grep sudo

'mbuild_install_build_command' = 'sudo ./Build',
'make_install_make_command' = 'sudo /usr/bin/make',
and:
$ env | egrep -i 'perl|sudo'
As alluded to before by Serguei, 'make_install_make_command' had sudo, as well
as 'mbuild_install_build_command'. Talk to your sysadmin (unless you are that
person, then people will think you are crazy for talking to yourself).
