I have to imagine they thought of that and couldn't implement it for whatever reason. I know nothing about the topic but a solution so simple would seem to have been considered before removing it completely, as they said there was no other solution. Maybe the trigger wasn't able to be switched on and off so easily but what do I know, just trying to okay devil's advocate.

This defitely played a part in the decline of custom maps along side less KZreadrs covering custom maps. It wasn't totally fatal and the Bedrock marketplace would eventually have an even worse impact on high quality maps becoming less common for java edition imo, which sucks for me as I only play java.

You might say "nobody would still have that" but if they bring it back and tell you that they fixed players being able to put arbitrary nbt into a command block, every server where you could attain a command block like that will be at risk if they take even a day until they update, bad actors would just try to get command blocks on as many servers as possible until they update, and when they update, they are still at risk. If you say "they should also validate player inventories", they will jujst hide it in dispensers, if you say "they should also validate dispensers then", then maps will break as the dispensers have to be validated.

for a good long while in bedrock edition something like this existed as well it was known as the inventory transaction exploit (now patched) it allowed complete NBT editing as well as command block editing and some found other ways around just holding a command block minecart (which was the main exploit) such as creating beehives that instead of having bees had a command block minecart of course servers which were vanilla tried to combat this by simply removing beehives and bee nests then players started using fish buckets seeing as they could output an entity with nbt data to place command block minecarts once that was patched hackers found something pretty interesting they found a way to not only spoof the item but spoof the minecart as well so it couldnt just be /killed they used an unknown block that acted like a beehive and it output not a minecart but a moving block (the same entity used as a piston head) that acted like a command block this became so hard to completely patch that users would have to create mods just to try to patch these because combating them with just command blocks became nearly impossible but one day i hear mojang held a mobvote and some attackers used these exploits only then did mojang patch this this exploit lasted for years on end and all they had to do was make all item transactions handled server side

Inventories were server-sided on bedrock ever since 1.14 its just that there was a source type that was used for crafting, enchanting, beacon payment, repairing, renaming items that practically no validation checks. In 1.16 Mojang added the ItemStackRequest packet which was designed to replace the InventoryTransaction packet. It was used for all the purposes I listed above. However, Mojang never removed the functionality for that source type until 1.19.60, which was what let people to spawn in any items they wanted.

Since you can now dispense shulker boxes, you can effectively still use the feature, but you have to run it through a red-coder which will select the matching signal strength of the schulker box you place, which means you can do the same thing, you just have a little more delay and noise. Not a perfect solution, but you can effectively do the same thing still.

Command block dispensing is completely overshadowed by the eventual release of datapack functionality.

There was also a command written book in wurst years ago. If people clicked on the book it would run a command on their client.

I used to play on an svanilla server when this exploit was at its height, and one of the more notorious abusers of this exploit had basically held the server hostage until he was given a permanent staff position. We became good friends, chances are you learned his name during the research of this video. It’s fun seeing this revisited!

this is why no public server runs on vanilla if even they say its "vanilla"

Luckily, with the new updates to Minecraft datapacks, you can pretty much recreate this effect.

Hello! keep up the great work! you are probably the most interesting minecraft youtuber i watch.

I had made a forceOP book that when you open it just automatically OPS every player in the radius, but the bad thing about said book is you would need creative which can be done in creative servers/

Happy new years! guys

Wouldn't this still work with command block minecarts? Also, dispensers can also place carved pumpkins and wither skeleton skulls, if the dispenser believes this will create a mob. IIRC, the dispense is sometimes wrong about that. (Also, technically, water and lava sources are blocks, but I understand not counting those)

Hmm... I was petty new to the game during the 1.8 versions, and didn't do much with commands, so I might be wrong about what command blocks were capable of at the time, but wasn't it possible to set a command block to detect the presence of a particular item? A dropper filled with items, and then a set of detectors that activated further commands would be larger and clunkier than directly dispensing a random command block, but do basically the same thing. And even if you couldn't do the detection directly with commands, you could definitely do it a little slower with item sorters. Not necessarily better than an armor stand randomizer (I don't know enough about those to compare) but at the very least another option.

*Dispencers also place Carved Pumpkins, if in close proximity to two snow blocks

They had to wait three major versions to get another dispenser block randomiser

On vanilla servers you can do force op to this day but there are no vanilla servers anymore

hey, did you know that if you go to any p2w creative server, you can lag the game infinitely?

They could've made a special dispenser that can place only and put items in by operators.

Why couldn't there just be a check for non-op players that the block they're "copying" actually exists nearby on the copy side of the operation?

an exploit that mojang hasn't fixed yet?!?!!?!?! never seen that before

I just realized your server has ranks

They could just add NBT for dispenser to allow this behavior. But player with no sufficient permission could not place it.

Sooo what exactly is stopping mojang from simply making it impossible to obtain NBT data on any block without the operator status, or, better yet, making the operator command be impossible to run on a command block? I feel like an exception like that would be painfully trivial and wouldn't break anything

Why don't they just make a "make dispensers place command blocks" tick in World Options for single player?

Spoke be like: nice vid i think its really fun ;)

it really seems like command blocks shouldn't be able to set op to begin with. I honestly can't think of a single reason you'd want that to be a feature. It's too important of a command. That said, even with that removed, people would probably just give themselves creative mode, or use the fill command or any number of other ways to destroy things quickly... Even if theat was the case though

If you pour water on a stone, nothing happens, if you water on a stone again, nothing happens, but if pour water again and again and again and again and again nothing happens

omg! this exploit is crazy! it will destroy Minecraft forever! .....if you are using a 10 year old version of the game .... and if you are using a hacked client ......insane!!!

I decided to look at minecraft's official server list created by Microsoft. Unfortunately its no different than any other server list site, plagued with mostly p2w servers

Guess it's appropriate to see my name at 6:50 I don't know if I was the first to discover both of these bugs, but there was one this video was missing.

This was a catastrophic RCE from the get go. I don't understand why Mojang keeps presenting what is essentially a cheat shell as a viable multiplayer mechanic. If they want to make a real user-accessible command system they should start with an ownership and permission system (Unix is a good example in that it gets pretty far with very little logic), or completely separate data from logic. Redstone is a bad tool to manage command block control flow as well.

Why cant they just implement it as a gamerule instead of a global change so that mapmakers can still use the feature while the servers can still disable it

I feel like if they made it a per world toggle then it would have still been okay. I do know however that it isn't that simple and would take a lot of programming and testing to make it secure whist still giving that ability to the maps that need it.
