Apr 18, 2022 at 15:57 comment added Brian @BenVoigt I agree completely - I have edited to hopefully clarify that there is a somewhat "safer" means to store the info if you are overridden, but I would still vigorously oppose storing that information if I could, since one should ALWAYS assume that any attacker can read and correctly interpret ALL your source code and not just your hashed password list.

Apr 14, 2022 at 19:03 comment added Ben Voigt "store a flag indicating the user has bypassed the pwned password warning " is exactly what you mustn't do, other answers adequately explain why, but in summary, that flag becomes a "break this account first" beacon to attackers
