Here are all of the open security-related tickets on our bug tracker:

http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/query?status=!closed&keywords=~integrity&keywords=~confidentiality&keywords=~capleak&keywords=~privacy&keywords=~rollback&keywords=~security&order=priority

(Sorry about the length of that URL. It's the first "combined query" if
you click View Tickets on the Trac.)

I don't know where your expertise lies or how much time you have for your
project. The tickets listed by that query range from very easy, to issues
that might require significant design changes. I would suggest starting with
one of the tickets that involves beefing up tests (e.g. #406) or adding
additional verification (e.g. #723), in order to get more familiar with the
code.
