Players standing right next to blocks don't receive vertical knockback if attacked by anything that isn't a player. Players do vertical knockback to other players as one would expect.
It seems like knockback is only being applied incorrectly if the wall that the player is standing against is no higher than one block.
How to reproduce
Stand as close to a wall as possible
Let an entity, a zombie for example, hit you towards the wall
Watch as you don't receive any vertical knockback

Couldn't this new title be considered a bit misleading as well? As far as I've seen the bug only affect players
I can confirm this behavior, though the title of this report is a bit misleading and should be changed to mention that this only occurs when standing against walls. The current title implies that this happens all the time, however, this is only the case when you stand against a wall.
