That should never happen, so either your RAM is faulty, or your program is screwing up bigtime. The stack being messed up is truly worthy of a CPU exception, the other reason is not. It's just to circumvent a design desicion.Mind, I remember trying to crack a game which featured a bootloader which had its code shifted by one byte to odd addresses. By installing a custom exception handler to pull in the other byte, then returning from that exception, the program could execute that instruction. Of course, execution speed is very low with the CPU excepting at every mnemonic. I was so impressed I gave up on cracking the program.
