Hello @lilgrumpasaurusrex please contact the developer of this firewall plugin and ask them how to remove this false block.
If they can not solve it, you can use a firewall like Wordfence which works on million of sites and is fully compatible with WP Staging
I ve noticed for the Malcare firewall there are similar reports for other plugins, so this is something they need to fix and we can not do much here.
Thanks for your understanding.
All the best

Btw. We are gonna test this as well and will report the problem to the Malcare developers but it would be great if you can report it, too. That hopefully speeds up the resolution.
All the Best

Cheers, thanks, Rene. Pardon, but do you mean the MalCare dev ops people?
All the best,

Yes, you find the MalCare forum here: https://projectdmc.org/support/plugin/malcare-security/
Just to make sure, this is the firewallplugin you mean, right?
All the Best

We found out that MalCar only blocks the first initial login attempt to the WP Staging site.
You can bypass this, by closing the modal, that is blocked and opening again the staging site by going to WP Staging -> Staging Sites -> Actions -> Open
We will ask the MalCare Team to white list our action.
All the Best
