Chapter 22 in "Practical UNIX & Internet Security" is called "Writing
Secure SUID and Network Programs".

"Writing Solid Code", published by Microsoft Press (I forget the
author).  The book actually focuses on writing bug-free software, and
not on security issues, but there's definitely a large overlap there.

Take the SANS course on security programming taught by Matt Bishop. It
is very highly rated by those that have attended. The next SANS is in
October down in Orlando. See www.sans.org
1:30 - 5:30 pm - 'Writing Secure Programs'
