Steps to reproduce :
Start a Minecraft Server
Block a zombie attack with your shield.
Your shield doesn’t take any damage.
What’s strange about this is that it only happens with the dedicated server, not in singleplayer.
The issue is with Zombies, but not with arrows shot by skeletons.
This issue also exists with other server implementation : https://github.com/PaperMC/Paper/issues/13011
Environment
Fedora (Linux 6.16.7-200.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit))
Only happens with the dedicated server

Mojang does not have the control on 3rd part servers, please report this bug to the paperMC developers
Hi!
Thank you for your report!
However, this issue is Invalid.
Your game, launcher or server is modified.
If you can reproduce the issue in a vanilla environment, please recreate the issue.
Any non-standard client/server/launcher build needs to be taken up with the appropriate team, not Mojang.
A world which had previously been opened with a modified client might be corrupted. Please try reproducing the issue in a newly generated world.
Any plugin issues need to be addressed to the creator of the plugin or resource pack.
If you have problems on large servers like Hypixel, please contact them first as they run modified server software.

I'm sorry, I forgot to mention that. This bug also happens with the OFFICIAL Minecraft Server implementation, downloadable on the official minecraft website.
The video was recorded using the official vanilla minecraft server, as well as a vanilla client.
The problem is present with mobs that attacks in close combat. Projectile like arrows do damage to the shield, as they should.
