The return value of a function that is potentially used to initialize a local variable is not checked. Therefore, reading the local variable may result in undefined behavior.

Our AI analyzer flagged it to be a potential bug as it found another usage of the function in the codebase where the return value of the function was checked for success/failure before using it’s parameters.
