Let's sudo by face recognition of Windows Hello on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). It runs on both WSL 1 and WSL 2. This is a PAM module for Linux on WSL.

Authenticator fails to find valid window when Hello detection returns false #25
In the case that Windows Hello isn't supported, but a key is still generated (or you just run the WindowsHelloAuthenticator` binary by hand), it fails to upon the expected error UI box.
Output:
> sudo whoami
Unhandled Exception: System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. ---> System.Exception: Invalid window handle.
This API must be called from a thread with a CoreWindow or a window must have been set explicitly.

This all said, I'm not sure if there's actually a way to open a window on the desktop from WSL like this.
