      Description

      When accessing a page that has a component that uses the renderedOnUserRole a NullPointerException is thrown. This happens only on the initial access of the page, if the page is refreshed after the exception the app functions normally. Also it doesn't seem to matter if the user logs in as a user name with security clearance or not. If the renderedOnUserRole attribute is removed this exception does not occur.

      Exception:
      Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

        The test case and instructions on how to configure WebSphere and reproduce the error are attached to the Salesforce case.

        This seems very similar to ICE-4677, may be a duplicate.

        I investigated the SessionDispatcher class' inRole method and found the likely NPE source, and came up with a fix. Then I noticed that this JIRA was linked to a duplicate, which recommended a very similar fix.
