Hi Voger, I would choose to create a mini app or even a bare html page which is solely created for exactly that purpose: changing the password.
It is common to present the user a link via mail, which navigates to the password recovery or change page. But none of them re use a formerly opened browser window or tab of the password change requesting site, but creates a new window or tab. So after the user changed/recovered his password, you can simply navigate him to your main app and let him login with his new credentials.
