Thanks, but I'm not really sure how to prevent this. Normally, the server checks whether all blocks can be removed before actually removing them, which is what prevents bedrock from breaking. BlockLocker hooks into this mechanism (through the EntityExplodeEvent) to prevent protected blocks from being blown up.

If you're running Paper, you can go to the config folder, open up the paper-global.yml file and set allow-permanent-block-break-exploits to false. That should fix this issue (and will also disable bedrock breaking).

Do you maybe know of any protection plugins that don't allow this hack? Then I can look at their source code, and see how they manage to work around this exploit.
