A double-free and use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Vim editor. This flaw exists due to the corresponding tagstack being used twice when closing the window and if the quick fix list belonging to that window is also cleared using the same tagstack data. In this instance, Vim will try to free the memory again, causing a crash.
