Summary

Excelize is a Go language library for reading and writing Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. From 2.7.1 to 2.11.0, mergeCellsParser leaves the cached rectangle empty for an empty mergeCell ref and then passes that empty slice to cellInRange without a length check. GetCellValue reaches mergeCellsParser, which passes an empty rectangle derived from the mergeCell ref attribute into cellInRange. When a crafted worksheet contains an empty mergeCell ref and a non-streaming cell API reads the worksheet, cellInRange indexes four positions in an empty slice, allowing an attacker to panic on the first affected cell operation. 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.
