doesn't see the correct thread stack memory. Instead, it loads garbage (from offset 0 of the minidump file - well that's not garbage, but it is not the stack memory region either) and attempts to walk it. A typical symptom of this issue is when you get a single stack frame after processing - the context frame - for which you don't need stack memory. This issue is caused by an invalid RVA in the memory descriptor stored inside the MINIDUMP_THREAD structure for the thread. Luckily, the invalid RVA is 0, and the start_of_memory_region appears to be correct, so this issue can be easily detected and the correct memory region can be loaded using an RVA specified in the MinidumpMemoryList. I couldn't find a reasonable description on MSDN regarding MINIDUMP_MEMORY_DESCRIPTOR.MINIDUMP_LOCATION_DESCRIPTOR having RVA of 0 except maybe for full dumps where the 64-bit version of the structure (MINIDUMP_MEMORY_DESCRIPTOR64) is used and it has no RVA at all. It has a 64-bit DataSize which if interpreted as the 32-bit structure will very likely result in 0 for the RVA: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms680384(v=vs.85).aspx Anyways, the dump that I looked at was not a full dump so 0 for RVA is a bit puzzling (at least easily detectable): ...
