Machine-written summary

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

The libcrux-kem crate, versions before 0.0.10, panics when its decode functions for X25519MlKem768Draft00 private keys, X25519MlKem768Draft00 public keys, and XWingKemDraft06 public keys receive an input shorter than the key type's expected length. An application that decodes attacker-supplied bytes into these key types can be made to crash. Upgrade to libcrux-kem 0.0.10, which returns InvalidPrivateKey or InvalidPublicKey errors for invalid lengths instead.
