How can the Library Files backdoor be made more stealthy to avoid detection?

By default, the `Includes` section in the library-ms XML reveals the malicious CLSID. Attackers can clear the display path and set `isDefaultSaveLocation` to `false`, hiding the CLSID entirely. The manipulated library then appears normal while still loading the DLL when opened. This advanced technique is covered in the article under "Further Exploitation of Library Files Backdoor" and makes detection harder because the CLSID is not visibly listed in the library's properties or Explorer view.
