Being a CDN means it is very hard to find out where your file went. I agree with was said on this thread by other people. As an external penetration testing consultant, I would put this on a client report as a low risk finding / possible vulnerability and recommend it to be fixed. As an internal vulnerability manager I would push the developers to fix it, but I would give it a low priority and only real press then once all the higher priority ones have been fixed. However in the "real world" it is not a vulnerability, and don't expect Google to pay you for it. Regards Pedro
