Description
We've been noticing a large # of requests going directly to /wp-content/wp-includes/blocks/index.php with a user-agent containing "python".
The error being thrown is:
Uncaught exception 'Error' with message 'Undefined constant "ABSPATH"' in /var/www/wp-includes/blocks/index.php:8
This PR should prevent this.
