[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1070644, member: 32260"] It can be especially dangerous when combined with DLL dropped via HTML Smuggling. Next, the attacker may convince the user to download and execute an innocent loader (EXE file, script, document, etc.) that executes a (vulnerable) legal system executable from the WinSxS system folder. The loader does not do anything wrong/malicious, so it can hardly be detected by the AV. In the home environment, the attacks via DLL hijacking have an advantage when the AV does not check DLLs (loaded by benign EXEs) against the cloud backend. [/QUOTE]
