Maybe this is important to explain as is not clear how a corruption
cause pixels shift.


Assume you allocate the 2 chunks with 2 malloc:

   p1 = malloc(size);
   ...
   p2 = malloc(size);

Usually the allocator tend to allocate linearly if there are space
adding a prefix to describe next block leading to a memory arrangement
as:

   +-------------------+
   | p1 prefix         |
   +-------------------+
   | p1 buffer         |
   +-------------------+
   | p2 prefix         |
   +-------------------+
   | p2 buffer         |
   +-------------------+

now if you take p1 pointer and you assume it points to a 2* size
buffer you will get p2 prefix in the middle, this prefix are the
pixel shifts.


Do you have suggestion for a shorter explanation?
