From MITRE ATT&CK 19.2

Regsvcs and Regasm are Windows command-line utilities that are used to register.NET Component Object Model (COM) assemblies. Both are digitally signed by Microsoft.

Adversaries can use Regsvcs and Regasm to proxy execution of code through a trusted Windows utility. Both utilities may be used to bypass process whitelisting through use of attributes within the binary to specify code that should be run before registration or unregistration: [ComRegisterFunction] or [ComUnregisterFunction] respectively. The code with the registration and unregistration attributes will be executed even if the process is run under insufficient privileges and fails to execute.
