             Summary: Coverity static analysis: Explicit null dereferenced in NonceManager (Elytron)
                 Key: ELY-750
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-750
             Project: WildFly Elytron
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Josef Cacek
            Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
            Priority: Critical


Coverity static-analysis scan found 2 usages of null object in {{NonceManager}} class.

The method {{generateNonce()}} without params, call {{generateNonce(null)}} - where {{null}} is provided as a ({{byte[] salt}})
It's used later in the code:
{code}
if (log.isTraceEnabled()) {
    log.tracef("New nonce generated %s, using seed %s", nonce, new String(salt, StandardCharsets.UTF_8));
}
{code}
so it will throw NPE when trace-logging is enabled.

similar problem in {{useNonce(nonce)}} calling {{useNonce(nonce, null)}}
