DLL/exe Injection into running process

Is it normal to inject DLL or exe program into running process? After injection, I'm able to read process memory showing injected DLL/exe contents.

Yes it is "normal" to inject a DLL or exe into a running process. If your application has no other efficient way of doing it's job, and you must inject a DLL into other processes, by all means do it.

CreateRemoteThreadEx() is a Windows API Function, once your thread is running in the remote process you just call LoadLibrary() to load your DLL into into the process.

These are Windows API functions, as long as your account is an admin account there is nothing stopping you from injecting a DLL, these are well documents functions from Microsoft and plenty of legitimate software use DLL injection.
