Failed to get data field for AssemblyFlags, incrementing by reported size

[kujo2019]

On a Win10 x64 box, in an Admin cmd window I am running the python script from the article https://www.countercept.com/blog/detecting-malicious-use-of-net-part-1/ (https://gist.github.com/countercept/7765ba05ad00255bcf6a4a26d7647f6e). I am running it with the --high-risk-only flag. It gets a lot of "Failed to get data field for AssemblyFlags, incrementing by reported size" error messages.

What would cause this? Is this normal or a bug? How can I fix it or suppress these messages?

@kujo2019 this could be an issue with the ETW provider itself. Could you troubleshoot further by using another ETW collection tool, such as Microsoft Message Analyzer and report back if that works?

Try to run test_etw.py and get error.
Get error like this:

May I know why it happens and how we can fix it?
