The bug
In short, this bug is simply that the 'back' button on the multiplayer kick message screen can overlap with the kick message itself, if the message is approximately 9 lines or more. (Attached is a screenshot which shows this better).
How to reproduce
Start a server.
Set your GUI Scale to 3/auto.
Go into the console and run:
/kick @s 541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541fffff451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff541f451f541f451ff154f1f541ffff→ ❌ Text will appear behind the "Back" button. (Note: In newer versions the text appears in front of the "Back" button, which is not much better either.)

This is NOT a bukkit issue, as the issue is completely client-side. The only server-side thing here is the kick message itself.
Show me how it's done in Vanilla. You cannot create kick messages longer than one line in Vanilla Minecraft, at least not that we know of. Our rules specificly state that the issue has to be reproduced in an completely unmodified environment, including the server.
I have reproduced the bug on a Vanilla server, and am requesting this to be re-opened and looked at once again. See newest 3 screenshots for details.
Reopen. The back button can now overlap the text again as MC-108984 was fixed
Issue seems to be fixed for smaller gui scales. See
[media]
Still in 1.13.1 if you use GUI Scale: 3 or auto. See
@unknown kicked me with that long message, there's a limit.
Strictly speaking, this has been fixed now; but it would absolutely be better if the text was confined to a certain text box that becomes scroll-able when too long.
This was fixed in 23w14a, although not very well since we now have MC-265248 instead.
Blame Bukkit.
