Yes. There are two settings :
  • Monitor DLL files being loaded by running processes (Enabled).
  • Auto-block unknown DLL file(s) from being loaded by processes (Enabled).

When the benign EXE file (vulnerable to DLL hijacking) is executed, Xcitium monitors loaded DLL and blocks if it is Unknown.
Comodo (CIS) still does not monitor loaded DLLs, so it cannot block DLL hijacking attacks.

Those settings can increase security but at the cost of many false positives. Even if one whitelists all signed DLLs (like in Windows Smart App Control), the number of false positives can be too great for most non-enterprise users. We also must remember that with that fix the unknown DLLs are blocked and not auto-contained.
