Description
I have a swagger file like the following. It validates correctly when the referenced yaml file (abc.yaml) is not valid.
swagger: '2.0'
info:
version: '2.0'
title: ABC API
consumes:
- application/json
produces:
- application/json
paths:
/abc:
$ref: 'paths/abc.yaml'

Research direction
Start by reproducing the shown Swagger YAML with its relative $ref to paths/abc.yaml, where the referenced YAML is invalid. Trace the validator's handling of external relative references; done means an invalid referenced file causes validation to fail rather than pass.
