+bugprone-pointer-arithmetic-on-polymorphic-object
+=================================================
+
+Finds pointer arithmetic performed on classes that contain a virtual function.
+
+Pointer arithmetic on polymorphic objects where the pointer's static type is
+different from its dynamic type is undefined behavior, as the two types could
+have different sizes, and thus the vtable pointer could point to an
+invalid address.
+
+Finding pointers where the static type contains a virtual member function is a
+good heuristic, as the pointer is likely to point to a different,
+derived object.
+
+Example:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+  struct Base {
+    virtual void ~Base();
+  };
+
+  struct Derived : public Base {};
+
+  void foo() {
+    Base *b = new Derived[10];
+
+    b += 1;
+    // warning: pointer arithmetic on class that declares a virtual function can
+    // result in undefined behavior if the dynamic type differs from the
+    // pointer type
+
+    delete[] static_cast<Derived*>(b);
+  }
+
+Options
+-------
+
+.. option:: IgnoreInheritedVirtualFunctions
+
+  When `true`, objects that only inherit a virtual function are not checked.
+  Classes that do not declare a new virtual function are excluded
+  by default, as they make up the majority of false positives.
+  Default: `false`.
+
+  .. code-block:: c++
+
+    void bar() {
+      Base *b = new Base[10];
+      b += 1; // warning, as Base declares a virtual destructor
+
+      delete[] b;
+
+      Derived *d = new Derived[10]; // Derived overrides the destructor, and
+                                    // declares no other virtual functions
+      d += 1; // warning only if IgnoreVirtualDeclarationsOnly is set to false
+
+      delete[] d;
+    }
