The official sources show higher version numbers than the one that you mentioned.

For diagnostic purposes, what is the output of the commands:

uname -a
lsb_release -crid
apt-cache policy docker.io

Ubuntu 17.10 is not supported any more and has not received any updates since July 2018
see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases

If you switch to a supported Ubuntu version, you will see an updated version of docker.io (e.g. 17.03.2 in xenial, 17.12.1 in bionic)
