Description

Hi,
I point out the lack of some explicit NULL checks in the initialization method Init() of the ETWOutputModule.
I have the simple change ready but I don't have the possibility to publish a branch to proceed with the PR.

Research direction

Locate the ETWOutputModule class and its Init() method, then inspect how initialization handles its dependencies. The issue is done when the missing explicit NULL checks are present in Init(); no file path or test is named in the report, so confirm the applicable validation procedure with the project maintainers.
