I took a quick look through the open bugs but didn't see anything that jumped out at me as a beginner bug. However, that doesn't mean there aren't lots of useful things you could work on. Here is just one example. Looking at the code coverage report [1], the coverage for the DefaultServlet [2] isn't that great given it's importance (it is used to serve all static content). A useful task would be to provide some patches / pull requests to expand the test coverage of the DefaultServlet. The current DefaultServlet unit tests may be found at [3]. They should provide a useful starting point. It is worth keeping in mind that there is a fair amount of duplication in the unit tests. Refactoring to reduce that duplication is also very helpful. If you are more interested in another part of the code, then you could look at improving the unit test coverage for that. Any questions, just ask.
