From my own (sad ;-) ) experience I'd advise to blame Firebird last,
and first look through the code and make sure there are no statements
executing gen_id(generator, increment) with a _negative_ increment.

The values of generators are stored per database, so corrupted security
DB shouldn't do any harm to them.
