the first one runs in about:blank which is restricted. the second one
is very interesting but still not very useful because it acts like
about:blank. hmmm it seams that the hostname field has been seriously
overlooked.

Actually, there are several odd problems related to location updates and
location.hostname specifically, including one scenario that apparently
makes the script run with document.location in about: namespace.

I did not research them any further, so I can't say if they're
exploitable - but you can see a demo here, feel free to poke around:
