Research direction
Start by tracing DbgEng interface access across the engine, controller, interrupt, and UI threads, then inspect the existing serialization used for backend operations. Review teardown ordering and COM reference ownership in each path. Done means the audit findings are addressed, access is serialized where appropriate, and teardown and ownership are safe.
