This will fail to load the klass. Afterwards, we are trying to access the protection domain of the failed to load klass (i.e. a null pointer) which results in a segmentation fault. The fix is straight forward to only set the new protection domain if the klass was loaded successfully. I additionally changed the code such that we are only trying to set the protection domain when reading the first `instanceKlass` entry. This avoids some potential problems with older replay files where we do not have this additional first entry set by JDK-8275868.
