Summary

CVE-2024-22363 is a high-severity Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity (CWE-1333) vulnerability in Sheetjs (inferred from references). Its CVSS base score is 7.5 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique OS Credential Dumping (T1003); ranked in the top 43% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SA-15 (Development Process, Standards, and Tools) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SA-11 Developer Testing and Evaluation good match

Developer testing and evaluation can discover inefficient regex patterns via performance or static analysis.

SA-15 Development Process, Standards, and Tools partial match

Development standards and tools can require safe regex construction and forbid known exponential patterns.

SC-5 Denial-of-service Protection partial match

Denial-of-service protections limit resource exhaustion caused by expensive regex evaluation.

SI-10 Information Input Validation partial match

Input validation can constrain data that would otherwise trigger worst-case regex complexity.
