===Moving Piston===
Discovered in November 2020, the '''Moving Piston''' exploit is an exploit affecting only servers running Spigot and was subsequently abused in the subsequent months by taking advantage of a bug in Spigot that is caused when a tile entity (e.g. a chest) is overwritten with a ''moving_piston'' block by replacing the tile entity with WorldEdit or similar plugins that replace blocks. The server then crashes when it tries to fix the overwritten tile entity. It affected Minecraft 1.16.4 and eventually was patched.
