Answer
Look for improper synchronization and shared resource access.
Concurrency bugs often occur due to improper synchronization, leading to race conditions. In a code review, ensure that shared resources are properly synchronized. For instance, if multiple threads modify a shared list without synchronization, it could lead to inconsistent state.
