Definitely move up to a newer version of CXF and WSS4J. I THINK you are hitting a thread safety issue in WSS4J that I fixed for 1.5.7 or 1.5.8.
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=757489 I was hitting same NPE type things when doing some scalability testing with CXF back in march. Took quite a while to track that down.
