SCA: security update for github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 (GHSA-jrfj-fhj2-jjvm)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 473812

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Excelize is a Go language library for reading and writing Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. From 2.3.1 to
 2.11.0, agile decryption accepts an attacker-controlled spinCount and performs that many password-key
 derivation iterations before verifier validation. OpenFile reaches agileDecrypt, which passes the
 unbounded spinCount to convertPasswdToKey before password verification. When a crafted OLE encrypted-
 workbook header supplies an excessive spinCount and the file is opened, the key-derivation loop performs
 unbounded attacker-selected work and cannot be cancelled, allowing an attacker to consume a CPU core for
 an attacker-controlled duration. No fixed version is available as of this review. (CVE-2026-107219)

Solution

Update the github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 library and its related packages to version 2.11.1-0.20260906004932-2badfcd5841d or later.
