I just updated my QCAD to 3.26.2.0 (3.26.2) version and lost the hability to edit block attributes of my sheet or in any other block.
I tried to save as the drawing and the problem persists.
When I open the block, the attribute is there and is all set in the Specific Properties, but when I exit to the Model Space to edit the Attribute text, the created attributes don't appear on Specific Properties tab.
The use of block attributes in sheets, balloon or any block that contains text is very necessary.

Perhaps a misunderstanding. A block contains "attribute definitions". These are text-based entities that define what attributes a block has.
When inserting a block, a block reference is created, along with an "attribute" for every attribute definition in the block.
Changing attribute definitions will not automatically update attributes (as that would change your drawing, possibly in unintended ways). However, you can sync using Block > Attributes > Synchronize Attributes.
If you cannot solve the problem, please attach your file and describe step by step how you proceed.
You're totally right.
Clicking on Synchronize Attributes solved my problem.
Thank you very much!!
I'm sorry for my misunderstanding.
Have a great weekend.
