I hae a .NET Assembly which will be used via COM by a Win32 application.
When I register it using RegAsm (with /codebase option) I am warned not to
use /codebase wiithout a strong named assembly because of a security risk.

I am wondering what security risks to which it is vulnerable above any other
registered COM object.

Thank you!

It's not worse than other COM objects, it's worse than the full
protection .NET assemblies offer that are digitally signed.
