Description
WP_Query matches any post when query parameter name is an empty string.
For example:
$query = new WP_Query([ 'name' => '', 'post_type' => 'post', 'posts_per_page' => 1, ]); var_dump($query->posts);
The same is true for get_posts() which uses WP_Query internally.
This might be the intended behavior, but it's unintuitive and surprising. It can (did) cause a bug in user code that expects such a query to return no results.
