core dump during std::_List_node_base::unhook() - core

Question

I have a program where std::list is used.
The program uses threads which act on the std::list as producers and consumers.
When a message is dealt with by the consumer, it is removed from the list using pop_front(). But, during pop_front, there is a core dump.
The gdb trace is as below. could you help getting me some insights into this issue?
