SCA: security update for phpoffice/phpspreadsheet (GHSA-j2w7-387v-m2rq)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 477596

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- PhpSpreadsheet is a pure PHP library for reading and writing spreadsheet files. Prior to 1.30.7, 2.1.19,
2.4.8, 3.10.8, and 5.10.0, Ods::processTableRow in src/PhpSpreadsheet/Reader/Ods.php accepts an unbounded
table:number-rows-repeated attribute from an ODS table row. When the row contains a value, the reader
materializes a cell for every repetition without checking the spreadsheet row limit, so a small attacker-
controlled ODS file can consume substantial CPU and memory and terminate the PHP worker. Column repetition
is separately bounded and is not part of this vulnerability. This issue is fixed in versions 1.30.7,
2.1.19, 2.4.8, 3.10.8, and 5.10.0. (CVE-2026-108359)

Solution

Update the phpoffice/phpspreadsheet library and its related packages to version 1.30.7 or later.
