Sometimes the old oil filter gasket remains stuck to the filter housing when replacing the old oil filter. Remove the new filter and check to see if that happened. If not, I would suspect the new oil filter or gasket is faulty.

Oil filter installed incorrectly as in too tight, too loose, the gasket was not oiled prior to installation, or the old filter gasket was left on.

I doubt the filter itself is "expanding". Either the filter was not tightened enough or the seal is damaged. Also make sure to lubicate the seal before installation. Just put a small amount of oil on the seal & spread it around. If you did not do that, that might be why it is leaking or may have even damaged the seal when installed.
