An issue was discovered in the failure crate through 2019-11-13 for Rust. Type confusion can occur when __private_get_type_id__ is overridden.
The product allocates or initializes a resource such as a pointer, object, or variable using one type, but it later accesses that resource using a type that is incompatible with the original type.
