We are currently seeing too many errors in zabbix server log file related to snmp traps file:

These errors are being written in a huge number and causing zabbix_server log file to get rotated too often. We saw that this is a bug that was fixed in later releases per https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBX-9858
But we would like to find a solution for this without upgrading zabbix_server.

Our Zabbix server version: 2.2.4
Thank you.
