Crash in physics.js when explosion occurs (Mineflayer 4.27.0, MC 1.21.4)

[Hatadi-v]

• [✅] The FAQ doesn't contain a resolution to my issue

Environment

• Minecraft Version: 1.21.x (confirmed on 1.21.4)
• Server Type: PaperMC, running on LAN (also tested on Vanilla & Spigot)
• Mineflayer Version: 4.27.0
• Node.js Version: v22.14.0
• OS: Pop!_OS (Linux)

Problem

The bot crashes whenever an explosion happens nearby (e.g., TNT or Creeper).
It crashes inside mineflayer/lib/plugins/physics.js at line 299 whenever it tries to process explosion
I think it has something to do with insanely large vector in player knockback.

What did you try yet?

At first, I thought it was caused by my own bot code (~1000+ lines), but I reproduced the bug using a minimal Mineflayer bot that just connects and spawns.
I tested this on:

• PaperMC, Vanilla, and Spigot servers
• LAN setup
• Fresh installs of Mineflayer and Node.js

All setups crash instantly on any explosion.

Minimal Reproduction code

import mineflayer from 'mineflayer';

const bot = mineflayer.createBot({
  host: 'localhost',   
  port: 25565,          
  username: 'TestBot',  
});

bot.on('spawn', () => {
  console.log('Bot spawned and ready');
});

Expected behavior

The bot shouldn't crash when an explosion occurs nearby.
Instead, it throws a TypeError trying to access property which is undefined ;-;
