Mac user password resets
As others have mentioned, a second account with admin privileges might be your best bet. If you're going to go that route, you may want to implement macoslaps along with that. Macoslaps randomizes the local admin password which comes in handy if you need to give the password to someone. It used to be only for Active Directory joined Macs but now can be used without an active directory (via MDM). Here's the link for more info: This goes on the clients - https://github.com/joshua-d-miller/macOSLAPS

Anyone know if macOSLAPS will work with the new Windows LAPS update Microsoft just announced?
We use MacOSLAPS on our Mac clients to randomize the admin password on those machines: https://github.com/joshua-d-miller/macOSLAPS

The Active Directory team has delivered LAPS natively to Windows 10 & 11, #WindowsServer 2019 & 2022 with this month’s Patch Tuesday!
And that implementation is why when I set this up at $oldJob I set the RemovePassChars key to all ambiguous characters I had run into on the Microsoft product.

First Post - a stupidly specific failure
I believe setting something like macOSLAPS up will also resolve the issue since the automatically created local account would authenticate and update it's password silently.
- is it possible to see what account made changes to the system?

There are a variety of alternatives, such as https://github.com/joshua-d-miller/macOSLAPS

Intune update policies for macOS
Not a direct answer but I've been implementing Nudge all day. It reminds the user to update. You install the pkg and then push an mdm profile with your minimum version and date. https://github.com/macadmins/nudge

MacOS Updates
We deployed Nudge to our Macs to remind users to accept their updates. There's a script on Microsoft's Shell script GitHub to deploy it/keep it up to date. You can build a custom config profile using the documentation on the Macadmins' Nudge Github home as well.

JAMF Patch Management
Taking a few steps back, I’m assuming this is in an effort to patch macOS? If so, I personally feel this is not the right method. Take a look at other encouragement tools instead, like Nudge (https://github.com/macadmins/nudge) or utilising device compliance solutions like Jamf and Intune via their plugin solution.
What are some alternatives?
