SCA: security update for github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 (GHSA-wp2g-vpjj-g53r)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473905

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, ANCHORARRAY recursively calls the exported CalcCellValue function, creating a fresh calculation
context at each cycle and bypassing in-flight and iteration controls. ANCHORARRAY calls CalcCellValue
instead of cellResolver, so each recursive hop receives a new calcContext and loses cycle state. When
mutually referencing dynamic-array formulas are evaluated directly or through formula-evaluating APIs,
each recursion hop resets the cycle budget and prevents completion-based caches from breaking the cycle,
allowing an attacker to cause a fatal Go stack overflow and abort the process. No fixed version is
available as of this review. (CVE-2026-107216)

Solution

Update the github.com/xuri/excelize/v2 library and its related packages to version 2.11.1-0.20260911060113-ea12859e43c6 or later.
