Description
Issue description
When running the CLI on a stats file (not all stats files, just some), I'm getting the following error, and the following error only:
Could't analyze webpack bundle:
TypeError: Cannot read property 'forEach' of undefined
It's not a lot to go on, there aren't any helpful hints or file names in which it crashes.
