Thanks for the details @rojin

Funnily enough this sounds exactly like [Logstash execption in pipeline worker](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/logstash-execption-in-pipeline-worker/259965) where @badger also responded and pointed to [ConcurrentModificationException · Issue #19 · ip2location/logstash-filter-ip2location · GitHub](https://github.com/ip2location/logstash-filter-ip2location/issues/19#issuecomment-660755521) where it was suggested to try `version 2.1.2.` of `ip2location`. You seem to be using a previous version here so I'd give updating a try.  
Not hearing back on that previous issue could well mean that this resolved the problem back then.

I had seen this issue initially and now that you also use `ip2location`, and on the same Elastic stack version, it seems that this might indeed be fitting. It can be hard at times to select the correct parts of a message to search for related issues and, as I mentioned on Slack, more information upfront is always helpful. Had you initially mentioned that this plugin was used and on what version, I would have directly suggested to look in that direction.

Have a great weekend, all!
