| − | The OWASP Java Project's goal is to enable Java and J2EE developers to build secure applications efficiently. See the [[OWASP Java Project Roadmap]] for more information on our plans.

| − | | |
| − | Stephen de Vries and Rohyt Belani lead the project. We're currently building out the [[OWASP Java Project Roadmap]]. Please submit your ideas for where we should spend our efforts there.

| − | ==Java Security Overview==
| |
| − | | |
| − | While Java and J2EE contain many security technologies, it is not easy to produce an application without security vulnerabilities. Most application security [[:Category:Vulnerability|vulnerabilities]] apply to Java applications just like other environments. The notable exception is [[Buffer overflow|buffer overflow]] and related issues that do not apply to Java applications.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The goals of this project are to provide information about building, configuring, deploying, operating, and maintaining secure Java applications. We cover the following topics
| |
| − | | |
| − | ; Securing the Java Environment
| |
| − | : Understanding the security of the Java platform is a critical first step to understanding the security of your application. The articles cover the bytecode verifier and Java security manager (aka Sandbox), JRE vs. JDK, precompiling JSP's, decompiling, reverse engineering, etc...
| |
| − | | |
| − | ; Securing Java Application Code
| |
| − | : This section covers dangerous Java calls and common vulnerabilities associated with them, such as Runtime.exec(), Statement.execute(), readline(), etc... The dangers of native code, dynamic code, and reflection will be discussed. We'll also talk about using tools like PMD, jlint, FindBugs, Eclipse, jad, and more. This section will also cover standard security mechanisms in the JDK, such as cryptography, logging, encryption, error handling.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ; Securing the J2EE Environment
| |
| − | : These articles cover topics specifically related to the J2EE environment. We discuss minimizing the attack surface in web.xml, configuring error handlers, using EJBs, configuring authentication and access control in the environment, and implementing custom validators and isAuthorized() methods.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ; Securing J2EE Application Code
| |
| − | : Finally, you have to secure your J2EE code, such as servlets, JSPs, controllers, business logic, and persistence layers. We'll discuss handling request parameters, encoding, injection, and more. We'll also discuss the use of security mechanisms such as log4j, BouncyCastle, XML encryption, XML signature, and other technologies.
