ColdFusion null pointer problem in ColdFusion 10 & 11 could it be a serious problem!

For a long time I have been seeing a lot of errors in my Application logs, that has had me stumped for a very long time and thanks to Brad Wood, have now got a reproducible solution. For those who haven't seen my rants and raves about this then let me give you a quick run down.

There where two types of errors that would be emailed to me in my actual site, due to the amount of times I was seeing this error it had me worried. I could not see from the email as to what the actual problem was, when I contacted my hosting provider all I ever got was that we don't see this in the ColdFusion logs. So it was hard to know if I was the only one having this issue or not, or like everyone else om my hosting provider capturing the logs and not knowing what or how it was occurring.

As a well ColdFusion should be aware of any serious errors it is causing, this lead me to raise a ticket so that people on hosting servers, would not have to report this error or any other error that ColdFusion itself would consider a serious error. Which got such a back lash by people who, well just didn't understand what the ticket was for, anyway aside from that Brad did a very quick test on a standard two file Application for ColdFusion.

The code is as follows.
