Summary

Excelize is a Go language library for reading and writing Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. From 2.10.1 to 2.11.0, RIGHT validates the requested length with UTF-16 code-unit counts but slices a rune array using Unicode code-point counts. RIGHT reaches leftRight through CalcCellValue, where countUTF16String validates one unit but utf8.RuneCountInString supplies the slice index in another. When RIGHT evaluates supplementary-plane text with a requested character count between the rune count and UTF-16 code-unit count, the inconsistent units produce a negative rune-slice index, allowing an attacker to panic during formula evaluation. No fixed version is available as of this review.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can supply a crafted XLSX file that, when opened by an application using Excelize, causes a panic and process termination, leading to denial of service. The risk applies to applications processing untrusted Excel files.

Recommendation

No fix is available. Monitor Excelize releases and update to a fixed version as soon as it becomes available. Consider validating input XLSX files before processing.
