Also be sure to check on http://www.owasp.org as there is a *ton* of great
information on the site.

Here are some good starting points:

http://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:Java

And also some good information on doing code review in general:

The Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) has a "view" of issues that can
occur in Java applications.

See: http://cwe.mitre.org/data/slices/660.html for a listing of all the
details or: http://cwe.mitre.org/data/lists/660.html for a list of the
items where the names are hyper-links to the content about them.

The entries include description, code examples, real world CVE examples
of the issue in many cases, references and in most cases pointers to the
attack patterns effective against the issue.

I am trying to become an expert in source code review in java application
security.  Are there any experts on this list that are willing to share some
of their knowledge?   I am reading Java Security by Scott Oaks and I am
rereading all of the Sun Docs on java security.  Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt
