Vulnerability Report:
As part of our recent work on the trust hierarchy that exists among
email providers throughout the Internet, we have uncovered a serious
security flaw in Ggoogle's free email service, Gmail. This
vulnerability exposes Google's email servers in a way that allows an
attacker to use them as open spam and phishing relays.
