SCA: security update for github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 (GHSA-fq3v-74gv-27gm)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473824

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, flatCols expands file-loaded column ranges without validating Min and Max against the worksheet
 column limit. SetColWidth reaches flatCols, which expands xlsxCol.Min through xlsxCol.Max without
 enforcing MaxColumns. When a crafted worksheet supplies an oversized col max attribute and the application
 invokes a column mutator, flatCols performs a deep copy and append for every attacker-selected column
 number, allowing an attacker to consume excessive CPU and memory or trigger OOM. No fixed version is
 available as of this review. (CVE-2026-107223)

Solution

Update the github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 library and its related packages to version 2.11.1-0.20260807015645-a54c578af309 or later.
