🧀 Update on MintsLoader: a thread 🔽  
MintsLoader is a JavaScript/PowerShell loader that was first detailed by OCD in 2024.  
A new version has been around at least since early-June 2025.

Historically, new MintsLoader JS samples were easy to find because the obfuscation strings consistently used text from the book [Andrew Melville by William Morison](https://archive.org/details/cu31924029479098 "https://archive.org/details/cu31924029479098"). 
The associated infrastructure could be tracked thanks to specific patterns and campaign IDs in the C2 URLs.


These detection opportunities were [presented](https://www.botconf.eu/wp-content/uploads/formidable/2/BOTCONF2025LT13-Simon-Vernin-Mintsloader.pdf) during the Botconf 2025.
The new version has removed these notable behaviours and is seen in campaign with fake invoices lures.
