MsQueue and SegQueue suffer from double-free

view advisory published 2018-12-09Licence: CC0-1.0

Even if an element is popped from a queue, crossbeam would run its destructor inside the epoch-based garbage collector. This is a source of double frees. The flaw was corrected by wrapping elements inside queues in a `ManuallyDrop`. Thanks to [@c0gent](https://github.com/c0gent) for reporting the issue.
