UAC Bypass via Elevated COM Object Applications
Detects attempts to bypass User Account Control (UAC) by launching specific Windows applications (eventvwr.exe, fodhelper.exe, computerdefaults.exe, slui.exe) that can auto-elevate, when initiated by cmd.exe or powershell.exe. This rule specifically excludes executions from standard system directories (system32, syswow64) to reduce false positives from legitimate system operations.
