Kick exploits are exploits in the Java Edition protocol implementation or game logic implementation that can be abused to disconnect a client from the server.
Server-side
Server-side kicks force the server to disconnect a client.
Oversized packets
Oversized packets are achieved by making the server generate a packet that is too large for it to encode, resulting in the server disconnecting the player.
Such exploits have since been largely patched by PaperMixins[1].
ViaVersion kick exploits
ViaVersion kick exploits are occasionally the result of ViaVersion bugs, but are usually caused by oversized packet kicks.
Clientside
Client-side exploits cause unpatched clients to disconnect from the server.
