It sounds like context.getObjectAttribute("userPassword") returns an Object so you just need to identify what it is.

Based on the comments it was a byte[] array which was representing a String, so you can basically do this:

Object o = context.getObjectAttribute("userPassword");
byte[] bytes = (byte[]) o;
String hash = new String(bytes);
