+ if this is not possible in your setup you can increase security by

+
+    1. two wrappers are provided by this plugin: chpass-wrapper.py / chpass-wrapper_expect.py
+    2. move wrapper out of the default location to a random place
+    3. change permissons of wrapper to root:www 770 to avoid changes by user or webserver

  Some drivers that execute system commands (like chpasswd) require use of sudo command.
  Here's a sample for CentOS 7:
