Found this comparing the two instance-property terminators.
terminator_EnumerateInstanceLayerProperties, on theparse_layer_environment_var_filterserror path:parse_layer_environment_var_filtersreturnsVK_ERROR_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORYwhen it cannot allocate the lowercased copy ofVK_LOADER_LAYERS_ENABLE/VK_LAYERS_DISABLE/VK_LOADER_LAYERS_ALLOW. That copy is sized by the env var value andinstis NULL here, so it is a plaincalloc. Thememsetthat clearsinstance_layer_listsits after that call, so the earlygoto outreaches theout:cleanup with the struct still holding stack garbage.loader_delete_layer_list_and_propertiesthen walkscountentries, callingloader_platform_close_library(list[i].lib_handle)and freeing every string in each element, then freeslist, all from indeterminate values.The sibling
terminator_EnumerateInstanceExtensionPropertiesmemsets its list before the same call. This one had the order reversed. Zero-initialise at the declaration so the cleanup is a no-op when the parse fails.
