Viper Anti-Dupe

Viper Anti-Dupe is a server-side Fabric mod that blocks item and block duplication exploits on Minecraft servers. It works only on the server: players do not need to install anything. Protection is applied through server-side guards on block interactions, entity behavior, hoppers, pistons, containers and incoming player packets, so common duplication methods are stopped before extra items can be created.

Supported versions

Minecraft Java Fabric Loader Notes
1.21 - 1.21.11 21 0.19.3+ Full support, 25 blocked methods
26.1 - 26.1.2 25 0.19.3+ Full support, 25 blocked methods
26.2 25 0.19.3+ Full support, 25 blocked methods
26.3 25 0.19.5+ Full support, 26 blocked methods (adds shelf protection)

Download the file whose supported Minecraft versions match your server. Fabric API is required on all versions.

How it works

  • Every known duplication method has its own on/off switch in the config file. Each switch defaults to blocking.
  • When a blocked duplication attempt is detected, the action is cancelled and the attempt is written to the audit log with a timestamp, the player name and the dupe type.
  • Suspicious inventory packets (desynced container clicks, invalid stack splits, invalid creative-mode stacks) are cancelled and the player's container is re-synced.
  • A configurable list of known dupable items lets you flag risky items. The mod ships with a default list covering rails, carpets, concrete powder, shulker boxes, gravity blocks, TNT, books, tridents, bee nests and related items.
  • Configuration can be reloaded in game without restarting the server.

Config semantics

In config/viper-anti-dupe.json, each dupe method key follows one rule:

  • false = the method is BLOCKED (the mod prevents it). This is the default.
  • true = the method is ALLOWED (the mod does not interfere with it).

Setting a method to true does not create an exploit; it only turns off this mod's protection for that method.

Installation

  1. Install Fabric Loader on your server (0.19.3 or newer for 1.21.x, 26.1.x and 26.2; 0.19.5 or newer for 26.3).
  2. Install Fabric API for your Minecraft version.
  3. Put the matching Viper Anti-Dupe file into the server mods folder.
  4. Start the server once so config/viper-anti-dupe.json is created, then adjust the toggles to taste.
  5. Run /viperantidupe reload in game after editing the config, or restart the server.

Audit entries are also appended to the log file configured by the logging options.
