SCA: security update for github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 (GHSA-fw94-4wwp-w8pw)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 473818

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 2.1.0 to
2.11.0, a Zip64 uncompressed size with the high bit set is converted from uint64 to a negative int64
before signed size-limit checks and allocation. ReadZipReader obtains UncompressedSize64 through
FileInfo.Size and passes the wrapped negative value to readFile. When a crafted Zip64 entry declares an
uncompressed size from 2^63 through 2^64-1 and the workbook is opened, the negative size bypasses unzip
limits and reaches make as a negative capacity, allowing an attacker to panic during workbook opening. No
fixed version is available as of this review. (CVE-2026-107224)

Solution

Update the github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 library and its related packages to version 2.11.1-0.20260805032953-db93f8d89de7 or later.
