NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream restlet package and not the restlet package as distributed by Ubuntu.
Restlet Framework before 2.3.11, when using SimpleXMLProvider, allows remote attackers to access arbitrary files via an XXE attack in a REST API HTTP request. This affects use of the Jax-rs extension.
