The readFrom function in providers.jaxb.JAXBXmlTypeProvider in RESTEasy before 2.3.2 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via an external entity reference in a Java Architecture for XML Binding (JAXB) input, aka an XML external entity (XXE) injection attack, a similar vulnerability to CVE-2012-0818.
