It's possible that when the filter was put on, the seal ring wasn't clean, or the filter wasn't tightened enough. -In any event, this is now the occasion to fit a new oil filter if that one was more than 3,000 miles old, OR to take the existing one off and clean the seal. This should never be put on dry BTW, a smear of engine oil around the seal helps it to seat better.
