Alter User in Stored Procedure

I am using Oracle security for my application and would like to allow users to change their own passwords without using SQLPlus. I am attempting to use "ALTER USER username IDENTIFIED BY newpassword REPLACE oldpassword" in a stored procedure to provide this functionality, but it always gets an insufficent priveleges error. The users can change passwords freely at the SQLPlus prompt, but cannot do the same via the procedure.

Does anyone have any ideas?
