CVE-2019-7286 is a memory corruption vulnerability in Apple Foundation, affecting iOS devices and addressed in iOS 12.1.4 and macOS Mojave 10.14.3 Supplemental Update. Apple states the issue was remediated through improved input validation. The available information indicates that a malformed or otherwise unexpected input processed by the Foundation component could corrupt memory and permit a local application to elevate privileges. Public reporting from Google Project Zero and TAG indicates this flaw was part of at least one in-the-wild iPhone exploit chain and was one of the privilege-escalation issues that remained unpatched 0-day at the time of discovery.
