CVE-2026-107215: Excelize: extractPart allocates attacker-controlled, unbounded and negative-sized buffers from CFB directory entries: remote panic / OOM DoS
extractPart allocates directly from the mscfb directory-entry size with no clamping (crypt.go:198, same missing bound at crypt.go:204):
buf := make([]byte, entry.Size)
entry.Size is the raw streamSize field from the attacker-controlled CFB directory entry (mscfb v1.0.8 fixFile, file.go:109-120: full uint64 → int64 for major version 4, low uint32 for v3). mscfb only detects short sector chains later, inside File.Read (file.go:485-489 “emergency brake”) — i.e. after the allocation. The zip path already enforces UnzipSizeLimit, and the KDF path bounds work with maxSpinCount; this path consults no limit at all.
