Workaround:

public static String[] GetPortList() {
    try {
        String[] serialPortNames = SerialPortList.getPortNames();
        return serialPortNames;
    } catch (NullPointerException e) {
    }
    return new String[0];
}

As I see, you use jSSC-0.8-tb2 (see 223 string of your stack trace: 
0x0000000067c40000 - 0x0000000067c5d000 
    C:\Users\Pavel\.jssc\windows\jSSC-0.8-tb2_x86_64.dll)

jSSC-0.8-tb2 have no checking of returned array from native code, that's why 
you have this error. This issue was fixed in jSSC-0.8-tb3.
