Excelize is a Go language library for reading and writing Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. Prior to 2.11.0, Excelize parses shared-string cell values with strconv.Atoi and checks only the upper bound before indexing the shared string slice, allowing an XLSX file containing a shared-string cell with -1 to trigger sharedStrings[-1] and panic when read through GetCellValue or GetRows. This issue is fixed in version 2.11.0.
CVE-2026-59162
This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.7%, top 51% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
