Executable compression, perhaps? Antiviruses also like to complain about that as they're often used by bad actors.
No version of calibre including the present one has ever touched any files in any windows system folder. In fact I dont even know what udhisapi.dll is. And grepping the calibre source ode for it shows no references whatsoever.
