What types of injuries could occur with some lower back rounding?

Flexion based injuries from lower back rounding are in general in ~3 categories.

1. Strained/pulled muscles
2. Bulging or herniated discs
3. SI joint slip or rotation

There's other stuff that branches off from those into more serious or specific injuries.

If you have proper form there's less than 99.99% chance you can injure yourself unless you have some inherent structural deficiency usually due to genetics or faulty connective tissue.

Deadlift may cause undue stress to the spinal discs, by pinching the front and leaving a gap at the back, forcing the internal fluids to compress towards the back, and potentially causing a herniated disc.
Some weightlifters use belt that helps as it moves and supports the back muscels.
