Got a bit of a weird one (the way I found it was a bit circuitous so I'll save you the details).

Looking at a particular address in my target process in Memory Viewer, and the Disassembly view is disagreeing with the Hex View...

Not sure what's up with that, but when I dump that memory region I get the data as it appears in the Hex View.

Seems like it's maybe a bug? Unless the target process is doing something really weird and the memory's getting updated without the assembly view updating?

I saw a similar issue when I dumped a specific function a while back, the initial 55 (push ebp) was dumped as CC (int 3), didn't think anything of it at the time.

Anybody seen this type of thing before?

That is because you've changed the memory to cc by placing a software breakpoint at that location
CE's disassembler knows this in order to kerp showing the original instruction, but hexview has no need for dealing with that so shows you how it is

Ah, *facepalm* of course that makes perfect sense (note to self, dump before setting software breakpoints in future Wink ).
