If the target core is supplied with a voltage other than 3.3V, driving a signal line high will forward-bias the target pins esd diode, which may be destructive.
Segger solves this in their J-Link by having a level shifter between their microcontroller and the target core. ST doesn't care and blasts 3.3V on the core anyways.
I'd suggest adding a bi-directional level shifter behind the ESD protection IC. Proper care needs to be taken when selecting the IC, since they are limited in silly ways. For example:
NLSX4014 has stupid restrictions on power supplies (as many others do), namely VCCB < VCCA-0.4V
It's not likely any more hs-probe will be made soon due to parts shortages, but there has been work on a new probe here (rusty-probe) which does include level-shifters for 1.8-3.3v.
