Trying to Reset my Apple password on my iMac

Under system information it says my Apple ID password has been "compromised" so I am tryng to reset it.

However when I enter my old password and propose a new password I get this message:

However then there is no further action suggested or prompted when I go to to Apple Account under the System settings so I cannot complete the operation.

Can anyone suggest what I should do next?

Thanks,

Nick.

iMac 24″, macOS 15.1

You must take those next steps on one of your other Apple devices, either an iPhone, iPad or iPod. One (or all) of those would be a trusted device on which you can continue the process of resetting your Apple ID password.
