ModSecurity: Audit log: Failed to lock global mutex: Invalid argument

I'm facing the errors below for 2 months:

ModSecurity: Audit log: *Failed to lock global mutex: Invalid argument*
[hostname "xyz.com"] [uri "/some/url/index.php"] [unique_id
"YoVhNjBIlODXmbU8zRObNAAAAAo"]

ModSecurity: Audit log: Failed to *unlock* global mutex: Invalid argument
[hostname "xyz.com"] [uri "/some/url/index.php"] [unique_id
"YoVhNjBIlODXmbU8zRObNAAAAAo"]

In the audit log I have the following:

I read it was related to logrotate.
I tried to add "Mutext default" line to apache2.conf, also tried to use
"Mutex posixem" to fix another mutex related error (AH02026: Failed to
acquire SSL session cache lock)...

I simply don't know what else to do to solve the problem, or if it's safe
enough to disable mod_security.

Any help is appreciated.

System: Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS
Apache: 2.4
