    Detects the NeedyMantis first-stage loader (e.g., WinSparkle.dll variants) which employs anti-debug techniques such as NtQueryInformationProcess and ThreadHideFromDebugger, alongside stack-based string deobfuscation, to prepare for the extraction and execution of a secondary payload (e.g., encryptbase64.ps1).
