Oh, so it's not entirely related to mini private keys but about bad entropy.

Bad entropy?

Yes "bad entropy", the attacker (or owner) replaced the pRNG by a deterministic approach, so the entropy is bad.

The backdoor isn't directly stealing bitcoins out of the victims through non-entropy related method.
It's because they edited the code's pRNG so that they can reproduce the private keys that the affected versions have generated.

I see, that makes sense after you explain it in detail.

Is there a process of getting the generator officially vetted?

Short answer, get a security audit.

Who can do it?
