Original dependency versions:

Upgraded dependency versions:

Environment

  • DXP 7.1
  • Liferay Faces

Resolution

In brief: Upgrade from com.liferay.faces.util-3.2.0.jar to com.liferay.faces.util-3.3.0.jar 

In details: The reported error occurs when com.liferay.faces.util-3.2.0.jaris being used instead of com.liferay.faces.util-3.3.0.jar.
This is normally fine if com.liferay.faces.util is explicitly included as a dependency in the pom.xml descriptor, although since it is a transitive dependency of com.liferay.faces.bridge.impl, normally it shall not be included.
