Confirm iPad / iPhone passcode to keep using iCloud

Why am I getting a message on my iPhone and on my iPad, in Settings, that reads “Confirm iPhone / iPad Passcode” and then says I need to confirm my iPhone / iPad passcode to keep using iCloud. This passcode also protects access to data stored in iCloud. I haven’t changed any settings or passcodes and my access to iCloud, along with iCloud backups, appear to be occurring normally. I’ve tried turning off the devices, but the message stays on. What should I do about this and why is it happening?

I just started getting this. When I put in my passcode and select Done nothing happens. Any ideas on how to resolve this? I'm on iPadOS version 16.5

I get this almost every month! After I confirm my pass code, a month later, I get this annoying message again! Why?

I get this every so often. Very annoying.

Is this community dead? Nobody else is getting this issue lately?
