Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The iceoryx2-bb-container crate, versions before 0.10.0 and the 0.11.0 pre-release range, exposes String contents as mutable bytes through safe APIs, and as_str() converts them to a Rust string slice without checking UTF-8. A caller using only safe Rust can build an invalid &str, which is undefined behavior. The source does not describe an attacker's required access level. The fix is to upgrade to version 0.10.0, which removes the mutable byte access methods as_mut_bytes and deref_mut.
