Version: This server is running CraftBukkit version 3002-Bukkit-085fe67 (MC: 1.16.5) (Implementing API version 1.16.5-R0.1-SNAPSHOT)
Guidelines Read: Yes

 Description   

Reproduction:

  1. Create new Spigot/CraftBukkit server
  2. `/gamerule universalAnger true`
  3. Punch enderman without looking into their eyes

Expected:

Enderman retaliates and attacks player

Actual behavior:

Enderman makes "hurt" noise, but otherwise ignores the attack

Vanilla behavior is correct. This is a vanilla issue.

Tested on freshly compiled spigot:

This server is running CraftBukkit version 3002-Spigot-138d451-085fe67 (MC: 1.16.5) (Implementing API version 1.16.5-R0.1-SNAPSHOT)

I must've been tired when testing it - this issue is also present in Vanilla. And `universalAnger` is the only gamerule that's needed to trigger it. Will edit issue description to reflect that.
