SCA: security update for github.com/xuri/excelize, github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 (GHSA-c85p-xxjj-2r75)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473798

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 2.0.0 to
2.11.0 in github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 and from 1.1.0 to 1.4.1 in github.com/xuri/excelize,
ColumnNameToNumber accumulates a bijective base-26 value in int64 without detecting overflow, allowing an
invalid long column name to wrap to zero with no error. ColumnNameToNumber accepts the overflowing name
VGWQHXLSDVIKWV, after which checkSheetR0 and xlsxWorksheet.checkRow use the wrapped column value as an
index. When a crafted worksheet uses an overflowing column name in a row normalized by checkSheetR0 or
checkRow, the wrapped zero column becomes a negative slice index during worksheet normalization, allowing
an attacker to panic and terminate the calling process. No fixed version is available as of this review.
(CVE-2026-107217)

Solution

Update the github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 library and its related packages to version 2.11.1-0.20260910071107-696050fbf14e or later.
