      Dereference after null check

      Either the check against null is unnecessary, or there may be a null pointer dereference. Pointer is checked against null but then dereferenced anyway
      /src/mongo/db/modules/enterprise/src/hot_backups/backup_cursor_service.cpp:82: FORWARD_NULL 115639 Comparing "replCoord" to null implies that "replCoord" might be null.
      /src/mongo/db/modules/enterprise/src/hot_backups/backup_cursor_service.cpp:115: FORWARD_NULL 115639 Passing null pointer "replCoord" to "getTerm", which dereferences it. (The dereference happens because this is a virtual function call.)
