But that's not going to be impacted by changing the password. I'm saying, use an interceptor after the fact.

The problem is the end state. The security fix in 3.3.1 is that it no longer just auto-transitions. Your subflow is ending with ValidateUsernamePassword, and prior to the fix, that end state caused the calling flow to transition to that state. It no longer does that for you, if you want that to happen you would have to add a transition rule to the conditions flow itself inside the CallExpiringPassword state so that it handles that event and not just proceed.

So it's doable, it's a bug in your original config that was taking advantage of a shortcut we had to remove.
