             Summary: Some methods in MessageUtils prone to NPE
                 Key: CXF-6845
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6845
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.0.9
            Reporter: Francesco Chicchiriccò


When attempting to upgrade Syncope 1.2 from CXF 3.0.8 to 3.0.9, I receive NPE due to some methods in {{MessageUtils}} - see for example

{code}
    public static boolean getContextualBoolean(Message m, String key, boolean defaultValue) {
        Object o = m.getContextualProperty(key);
        if (o != null) {
            return PropertyUtils.isTrue(o);
        }
        return defaultValue;
    }
{code}

As you can see, if {{m}} is NULL, NPE is thrown.

See for reference the same method from 3.1.6:

{code}
    public static boolean getContextualBoolean(Message m, String key, boolean defaultValue) {
        if (m != null) {
            Object o = m.getContextualProperty(key);
            if (o != null) {
                return PropertyUtils.isTrue(o);
            }
        }
        return defaultValue;
    }
{code}
