Connecting to SharePoint with MFA enabled

Hi,

 

I'm trying to create a simple windows 10 desktop app (WPF) that will connect to SharePoint but I get the following error:

 

Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.IdcrlException: The account password has expired, as specified by the account settings.

Does anyone have any code samples to connect when MFA is enabled?

Thanks

    I'm not sure anything changed in the meanwhile but last time I needed to handle MFA scenario I made use of PnP authenticationmanager's GetWebLoginClientContext method to authenticate:
