Description

In FilterImpl there is potential NullPointerException in the private method GetHeaderFieldValue() (line 169).

When condition in line 161 is true and condition in line 164 is false then null return value of msg.getUserID() (cause in line 161 was true condition) derefers in 169. Is it absolutely true that in complex these conditions must only works as "true+true" or be skipped by first "false"? Does this part of code need another check before 169 line?
