Rare problem pthread_create failed with Filebeat-OSS

Dear community, I came here to ask about this strange problem Im facing.
Running any beat (tested with filebeat, auditbeat and metricbeat) in their OSS current versions (tested the 7.12.1 recommended in the documentation, and also latest OSS version). I got this error:

runtime/cgo: pthread_create failed: Operation not permitted

Tested in Debian 12 and Ubuntu 22 server.

But, I am able to run normally without any errors the Filebeat 8.10.2 from Elastic (non OSS, and I guess non compatible with Opensearch).
Any idea?

I found similar topics in forums, but no any clear solution:

Hey @juan_cobalt

Im was running filebeat/winlogbeat on Ubuntu-22.0.4 from here

I since upgrade to version 8 on both. Not noticing any issues yet

Can you show your configurations for Filebeat? And how did you install it?
