Windows SpeechRuntime COM Hijacking DLL Load

This detection identifies suspicious DLL loads by SpeechRuntime.exe from outside the expected system directories. SpeechRuntime is vulnerable to a COM hijacking attack that allows an attacker to execute code remotely and stealthily by exploiting a Windows COM class. By altering the registry to point to a malicious DLL and then triggering the COM object, the attacker can cause the malicious DLL to load into SpeechRuntime.exe and execute in the user's context.
