    Summary: Cross-Site Scripting in exceljs

    Details: Versions of `exceljs` before 1.6.0 are vulnerable to cross-site scripting. This vulnerability is due to `exceljs` not validating data from parsed XLSX file and embedding HTML tags, like `<script>` directly into the sheet cells. Because of this it's possible to inject malicious JavaScript code and execute it when data from the sheet is displayed in the browser. ## Recommendation Update to version 1.6.0 or later.
