Reported this as a bug back on Test server when it was just implemented. Figures out its a new feature. They no longer need to land on your head and start biting off your brains, jump at point-blank distance is enough to damage you. Its weird because:
1. They do no damage to shield (and don't provoke shield bump)
2. They do no damage if they land on your face (you can still swing them off)
3. They can do nearly instant facejump and hit you without proper telegraphing a melee attack (they do damage at a swing's distance, how is that not a swing attack?)
If you ask support, they will, most likely, consider this a feature rather than bug. A bugged feature (see above), which needs to do more damage in more ways to more things. Would be funny if they also exploded blast blocks with their jumps.
