It is probably related to this: [Filebeat and GLIBC Errors on Ubuntu 22.04 - #2 by cmacknz](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/filebeat-and-glibc-errors-on-ubuntu-22-04/306653/2)

You are running a pretty old and non-supported version of Filebeat.

Try to use the last version for `7.17`, which would be 7.17.15.
