HIGH 8.8REMOTE

CVE-2026-108358 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 8.8) affecting affected software. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

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, XmlScanner::scan in src/PhpSpreadsheet/Reader/Security/XmlScanner.php uses a DOCTYPE detection pattern that accounts for NUL-byte interleaving but not ISO-2022 escape sequences in XLSX XML parts. The escape sequences prevent the scanner from matching the declaration, and XML charset normalization then removes the esc

Why this priority

  • High severity
  • Remotely exploitable, no login, no user action
