How does Objective-C handle stack corruption issues?
Updated May 17, 2026
Short answer
Stack corruption occurs when memory outside allocated stack frames is overwritten.
Deep explanation
This typically happens due to buffer overflows in C code, incorrect pointer arithmetic, or misuse of varargs. Since Objective-C interoperates with C, these issues can propagate into runtime crashes or unpredictable behavior.
