Description

Enhancement Type

Improve an existing feature

Describe the enhancement

Serialization Is Bad is attached to the JVM as a Java Agent, set via JVM arguments.
It'd be nice to add this as an option for older servers, and generally for security purposes, as there might still be mods with this vulnerability, even on modern Minecraft versions.

Research direction

Start with the server startup path that assembles JVM arguments and the existing handling for older server versions. Confirm how the Serialization Is Bad Java Agent should be attached and determine the configuration needed to make it available for affected servers. Done means the option works during startup without breaking modern servers.
