Gimp does not 'automatically' crop anything. It depends on the procedure used.

Please give more details of your work flow.

If you copy, paste and **anchor** the Floating-Selection it crops to the size of
the layer pasted into.

If you copy, paste and **To New Layer** then the size is retained but can be
larger than the canvas size. In that case use Image -> Fit Canvas to layers.

If you open several images using File -> Open-as-Layers then the canvas size is
the size of the first image opened. Use Image -> Fit Canvas to Layers. However,
the obvious is open the largest image first.
