C++: push_back in std::vector while iterating it

Following code snippet provides a very weird output. I was expecting an overflow( Python gives a MemoryError)

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>

int main()
{
    std::vector<int> a{1,2,3};

    for( auto const & item : a)
        a.push_back(item);


    for( auto const & item : a)
        std::cout<<item<<',';

    return 0;
}

Output: 1,2,3,1,0,3,

How do I interpret this result?

If you do a similar thing in Python, it gives a memory error.

>>> a = range(0,20)
>>> for i in a:
    a.append(i)



Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#3>", line 2, in <module>
    a.append(i)
MemoryError

>>> 

This question came to my mind, because above way of writing code is considered to be bound-safe. And for bound safety container should not grow/shrink during foreach type iteration. So, this is a leaky abstraction.

Is there a way one can wrap this foreach loop so that any operation causing size-modification/reallocation is not allowed in the loop body.
