SCA: security update for github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 (GHSA-mx22-3794-2vpv)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 473863

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 2.8.1 to
2.11.0, separately parsed pivot-table field indices are used to index the pivot-cache field-name slice
without bounds checks. extractPivotTableFields uses getPivotCacheFieldsName output while processing
GetPivotTables and trusts the dataField fld attribute as an index. When a crafted workbook supplies a
pivot-field count mismatch or an out-of-range dataField fld value before GetPivotTables is called, the
unchecked index causes a Go slice-bounds panic that escapes the library, allowing an attacker to crash the
process or request worker. No fixed version is available as of this review. (CVE-2026-107211)

Solution

Update the github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 library and its related packages to version 2.11.1-0.20261003002531-6258dcebc4e2 or later.
