I just noticed that lost pings are hidden. It was irritating enough that ping now requires elevation.

Update: I had installed inetutils to get telnet and ftp on High Sierra. That is what broke my ping.

I have the exact same situation as of this morning....
Many network tools under my /usr/local/bin/ were overwritten when I installed the inetutils this morning...time/date stamps match up....and like you, now my ping is broken and requires sudo.
I've been trying to experiment with changing OWNER and PERMISSIONS and unfortunately have had zero luck.
Did you find a way yet (as of your posting time) to get it working??
Fixed!
I downloaded HIGH SIERRA again from the App Store.
Opened the contents of the file.
Under /sbin/ on the installed, copied and overwrote my /usr/local/bin/ping with the one from the disk.
This was my fix.
cd /usr/local/bin
sudo mv ping ping.bk
sudo chmod u+s /usr/local/bin/ping
