In the standard library in Rust before 1.49.0, VecDeque::make_contiguous has a bug that pops the same element more than once under certain condition. This bug could result in a use-after-free or double free.

Weakness

The product calls free() twice on the same memory address, potentially leading to modification of unexpected memory locations.
