TerminateProcess(), like most of the Windows API, is declared WINAPI, which is __stdcall on 32-bit x86. That means that the callee, TerminateProcess() itself, is responsible for cleaning up parameters on the stack on return. In https://crashpad.chromium.org/bug/179, crashes in ExceptionHandlerServer::OnNonCrashDumpEvent() were observed in ways that make it evident that TerminateProcess() has been patched with a __cdecl routine. The crucial difference between __stdcall and __cdecl is that the caller is responsible for stack parameter cleanup in __cdecl. The mismatch means that nobody cleans parameters from the stack, and the stack pointer has an unexpected value, which in the case of the Crashpad handler crash, results in TerminateProcess()’s second argument erroneously being used as the lock address in the call to ReleaseSRWLockExclusive() or LeaveCriticalSection(). As a workaround, on 32-bit x86, call through SafeTerminateProcess(), a custom assembly routine that’s compatible with either __stdcall or __cdecl implementations of TerminateProcess() by not trusting the value of the stack pointer on return from that function. Instead, the stack pointer is restored directly from the frame pointer.
