Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
GHSA-3x94-m842-937c affects the phpoffice/phpspreadsheet Composer package in versions before 1.30.7, 2.0.0 up to 2.1.19, 2.2.0 up to 2.4.8, 3.3.0 up to 3.10.8, and 4.0.0 up to 5.10.0. The XML scanner misses DOCTYPE declarations when ISO-2022 escape bytes are inserted between their characters, so an attacker who can supply a crafted XLSX file can get entity definitions past the check. This enables denial of service through entity expansion on all PHP versions, and file read or SSRF in some configurations. Upgrade to 1.30.7, 2.1.19, 2.4.8, 3.10.8, or 5.10.0, depending on the release line in use.
