Description

Right now it is simple to prevent a user from authenticating when they have a compromised password. However, we should support more flows:

  • Allow the user to authenticate, but force the user to change their password before doing anything else
  • Allow the user to authenticate, but post a warning that the password was compromised
  • Checking when a password is changed
