The metal shell of an extinguisher is extremely strong. It could conceivably burst if the pressure got high enough. But the "release" (nozzle) ends of almost all extinguishers are designed to fail at pressures much lower than would rupture the metal shell.
Similarly, a shell that was cracked or cut would tend to puncture, releasing the pressure at the point of damage rather than bursting wide open.
The greatest danger would be from an extinguisher whose shell had corroded, weakening it without releasing the contents. There are several cases where rough handling of rusted extinguishers caused injurious or fatal explosions.
