Changes for version 0.20 - 2026-10-29

  • Security: limit ZIP entry counts and uncompressed sizes; read members incrementally and reject inconsistent size metadata.
  • Security: validate number format IDs and escape regex lookups to prevent regex injection from crafted styles.
  • Security: reject out-of-range date values to prevent excessive CPU usage.
  • Security: validate cell references against XLSX worksheet limits before indexing cell arrays, preventing excessive allocation from invalid rows.
  • Add cpanfile for easy dependency installation.
