    • Resolution: Fixed

      The report is as follows:

      102383 Dereference null return value
If the function actually returns a null value, a NullPointerException will be thrown.

In org.​bson.​codecs.​pojo.​PojoBuilderHelper.​configureClassModelBuilder(org.​bson.​codecs.​pojo.​ClassModelBuilder, java.​lang.​Class): Return value of function which returns null is dereferenced without checking (CWE-476)

      It's not immediately obvious whether an NPE can happen in practice, but it should be investigated and the Coverity issue updated appropriately.
