The solution in my case is quite simple but is specific to my setup. 
I am running  apache httpd in front of all my applications (either java
- using mod_jk or php). The authentication setup is all defined in the
apache configuration files using the module mod_auth_cas. So I just need
to require the page to change the password to require a valid user and
and the user is transmitted automatically with the request in cas (and
available using request.getRemoteUser()

I am not sure how this solution could be applied to a java environment 
only. I guess you would need to integrate the java client filter within
CAS it-self, but this is just an idea, and would need to be tested.
