Hello,
this happens when matching on folded drawers within multiple org headings.
The error
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument number-or-marker-p nil)
isearch-intersects-p(150 169 nil nil)
isearch-close-unnecessary-overlays(150 169)

How to replicate:
1. Save this into an org file and reopen:
2. Run M-x replace-regexp RET :drawer:
.*
