- MainThreadDispatcher: guard DispatchHook with try/catch so exceptions never escape to native caller; drain and fault pending work on Dispose; synchronize Execute/ExecuteAsync/Dispose against race/dispose.
- InstructionAnalyzer: require ModRM 0xEC for 0x83/0x81 sub-esp/rsp forms, rejecting unsafe RIP-relative or memory forms.
- PatternScannerCache: implement value equality on CacheKey so repeated scans actually hit cache.
- BackgroundTaskExecutor: add remote allocations to the free list immediately after VirtualAllocEx, before any write that could fail and leak.
- redirect: capture and restore original page protection in Apply/Remove instead of leaving target RWX.
- Regression tests for all six fixes.
Tests: 198 passing, 4 integration/interactive skipped.
The x64 frame math (0x20 + 8*stackArgs) and x86 arg buffer size grow with the
argument count. An absurdly large count could overflow int and produce a bogus
or negative frame. Add a MaxArguments (256) bound checked at the public entry —
far above any real calling convention — so the arithmetic stays in range. Add a
test asserting the cap is inclusive and count+1 throws.

x64 call stub was ABI-broken: fixed 0x20 frame left rsp misaligned at the
inner call (callee entry rsp ≡ 0, ABI requires ≡ 8) and, for 5+ args, wrote
stack args over the return address. Compute frame K ≡ 8 (mod 16), K ≥
0x20 + 8*stackArgs, so the callee sees a 16-aligned stack and stack args land
above the shadow window. Load register args as full 64-bit imm64 (was imm32,
which truncated pointers > 4 GiB). BuildCallStub now takes nuint[]; x86 range-
checks each arg against uint.MaxValue instead of silently truncating.
MarshalCache conflated managed and unmanaged width in one Size field: the
blittable path needs Unsafe.SizeOf<T> (bool = 1) while the marshal path needs
Marshal.SizeOf<T> (inline ByValTStr/ByValArray expand past the managed
pointer). Add MarshalSize; MemoryBase picks per TypeRequiresMarshal at all four
IO sites. Prevents PtrToStructure/StructureToPtr from over-reading/overwriting
the pinned scratch buffer (heap corruption on write).
Extract shared RPM/WPM into RpmHelper: honor partial reads (dead Array.Resize
removed), consistent write-return semantics; InProcessReader now guards
MainModule like ExternalReader.
Tests: x64 frame-alignment property + inline-marshal round-trip added (both
fail against the pre-fix code); existing x64 byte-expectation tests updated to
the new frame. Build clean, 100/100 pass.
