Bug Description

In WorldGuard-protected regions, creeper explosions normally do not damage blocks. However, there is a bug where block protection is bypassed if a player who is not the owner or a member of the region dies as a result of a creeper explosion inside the region.

Expected Behavior

Creeper explosions should never damage blocks in a protected WorldGuard region under any circumstances if the player is not the owner or a member of that region.

Reproduction Steps

1. Enter a WorldGuard-protected region owned by another player.
2. Spawn or lead a creeper into the region.
3. Ensure the player dies from the explosion.
