Not a google vuln.
Hunt down MSFT to pay for your bug.
Oh wait they dont pay for free research.. 0noz, you wont get any candy !

Security is a general,Many security issues are composed of many
different vulnerabilities of different factory.

like " mhtml:http://www.google.com/gwt/n?u=[mhtml file url]!xxxx " this vul

----------------------------------------------------------------
so we come back this vul need two Conditions
1.www.google.com app don't filter the CRLF
2.IE support mhtml protocol handler to render the mhtml file format,
and this is the why mhtml: is designed
--------------------------------------------------------------

Both are indispensable. so google's vul is  that don't take into
account the security implications using mhtml,

the MS vul is that "it does not honor Content-Type and related headers
(or even "nosniff")." like MZ saiy

GG and MS ,both are vul...

in addition, if MS saiy this is mhtml: 's original function, So google
is very dangerous to the user who using IE

Even if MS fixed it. how about the google users who do not have time
to upgrade IE ?

1.www.google.com app don't filter the CRLF

This is not strictly required; there are other scenarios where this
vulnerability is exploitable.

2.IE support mhtml protocol handler to render the mhtml file format,
and this is the why mhtml: is designed

The real problem is that when mhtml: is used to fetch the container
over an underlying protocol, it does not honor Content-Type and
related headers (or even "nosniff").
