SCA: security update for github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 (GHSA-r7x5-4969-99p7)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473864

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 2.9.0 to
2.11.0, GetSlicers checks for ExtLst but dereferences ws.Drawing without checking whether the
independently optional drawing element exists. File.GetSlicers reads ws.Drawing.RID after seeing a
worksheet extLst element even when the independently optional worksheet drawing element is absent. When a
crafted worksheet contains an extLst element without a drawing element and the application calls
GetSlicers, the nil ws.Drawing pointer is dereferenced while resolving the drawing relationship, allowing
an attacker to panic and terminate an unprotected process. No fixed version is available as of this
review. (CVE-2026-107213)

Solution

Update the github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 library and its related packages to version 2.11.1-0.20260929015830-8ffeb07ec9a3 or later.
