Does this FreeRTOS Heap Usage display suggest corruption?

It's an odd question, but does the attached snapshot of the debugger's FreeRTOS' Heap Usage tab suggest data corruption? 

 

I think it normally shows green areas representing those that are being used by the running firmware, and white areas that are free/unallocated.  In my image, you can see the big area that I would expect to be white is instead light green.

 

I know it sounds silly, but I've seen the debugger tabs report oddly in the past during an overflow/data corruption.  I've never seen a light green color there before.  Is it merely and indication that I'm closer to running out of heap?

Hello
No, the color does not suggest data corruption, it seems like a bug on the IDE view. 
This view only shows used and available space on heap. 

Best regards,
Omar
