+=================================================
+
+Finds pointer arithmetic performed on classes that declare 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 can
+have different sizes.
+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 class.
+
+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,
+    //          which can result in undefined behavior if the pointee is a
+    //          different class
+
+    delete[] static_cast<Derived*>(b);
+  }
+
+This check corresponds to the SEI Cert rule `CTR56-CPP: Do not use pointer arithmetic on polymorphic objects <https://wiki.sei.cmu.edu/confluence/display/cplusplus/CTR56-CPP.+Do+not+use+pointer+arithmetic+on+polymorphic+objects>`_.
