Research direction

Start with MavenProjectReportGenerator.checkDependencyManagement at line 269 and its call from analyzePom at line 158, then inspect the FileManagerImpl.findFile stack-frame context. Reproduce the reported IntelliJ 2025.2.1 failure against the referenced spec/pom.xml and determine the conditions for the invalid virtual file access. Done means the exception no longer occurs in this dependency-management analysis path.
