How hackers can crash your server

This is going to be a small rant, but on my server StarWorksMC I had a couple of script kiddies using wurst. But I guess in these later versions of Minecraft there are a ton of bugs that still haven't been patched. These two hackers ended up playing on my server for a while and acting suspicious. Like I was watching them X-ray, and use baritone, kill aura. The usual stuff. But they were collecting breeze rods. I thought that was weird that they were ACTUALLY playing on my server (despite the hacks). Turns out if you use the wind charges you can moment build, I think it was ender pearls and crash servers rendering the world useless (causing a world reset). Correct me if I'm wrong. But this was a crazy thing one of them explained to me. I haven't heard and they seemed to know what they were building. Have any of you heard of such a thing? Or have a way to prevent this? I tried recording the entire thing, but OBS and my hardware encoding messed up 30 seconds in the HOUR AND A HALF video that I did. Slide showing and all that :(

My server is running paper 1.21.8 I think the latest supported version with like 12-16 gigs of ram. And entitiy distance isn't set real high, like 50 blocks.

If any of you want to discuss more about how to prevent such things, my discord server on StarWorksMC is open to these discussions :)
