Yep! It definitely should not do that.
Re: possible filter problem
The very first thing to check is your multivalve on top (or side) of the filter.
First logical answer is either the spider gasket has failed or is installed wrong. Replace.
Second logical answer: One of the walls of the multivalve chambers is damaged and water is leaking through. You'll have to replace it.
After that it gets too tough to guess.
