The http://faq.javaranch.com/java/SecurityFaq contains links to two articles about SQL injection.

The key is not to put parameters directly into queries. With straight JDBC, use PreparedStatement; with Hibernate, use the Query class and setParameter.

More generally, never trust anything that comes from a browser. You may think its a browser, but it could be a program posing as a browser.

Even more generally, never trust anything from a user.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
