All versions of Apache Santuario - XML Security for Java prior to 2.2.3 and 2.1.7 are vulnerable to an issue where the "secureValidation" property is not passed correctly when creating a KeyInfo from a KeyInfoReference element. This allows an attacker to abuse an XPath Transform to extract any local .xml files in a RetrievalMethod element.

CVE-2019-12400
### Vulnerable Library - xmlsec-2.1.0.jar
Apache XML Security for Java supports XML-Signature Syntax and Processing,
W3C Recommendation 12 February 2002, and XML Encryption Syntax and
Processing, W3C Recommendation 10 December 2002. As of version 1.4,
the library supports the standard Java API JSR-105: XML Digital Signature APIs.
In version 2.0.3 Apache Santuario XML Security for Java, a caching mechanism was introduced to speed up creating new XML documents using a static pool of DocumentBuilders. However, if some untrusted code can register a malicious implementation with the thread context class loader first, then this implementation might be cached and re-used by Apache Santuario - XML Security for Java, leading to potential security flaws when validating signed documents, etc. The vulnerability affects Apache Santuario - XML Security for Java 2.0.x releases from 2.0.3 and all 2.1.x releases before 2.1.4.
