Hi Francisco,

Unfortunately your disclosure is factually wrong.

Please note that even the packet you are citing says "Host:
translate.googleusercontent.com" - this is not the same domain as
translate.google.es (or translate.google.com), therefore, due to the
JavaScript same-origin policy (
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Same-origin_policy)
it's a different origin. Which means that scripts executed from
translate.googleusercontent.com do not have access to cookies/DOM/etc of
Google Translate main domains (translate.google.es, etc).
And there are no interesting cookies / things to do on
translate.googleusercontent.com.

Given the above, as Google surely told you, you didn't find an XSS in
Google Translate, you found an XSS in a sandbox domain, which was designed
to allow execution of potentially hostile JavaScript code. Hey, you even
can find the *.googleusercontent.com domain in Google's sandboxed domain
listing:
https://sites.google.com/site/bughunteruniversity/nonvuln/xss-in-sandbox-domain

Keep in mind that when doing XSS-related security research a popping out
alert box tells you that you can execute code, but not if it's a
vulnerability - for that you need to verify the domain (and maybe
schema/port as well, depending on your case), e.g. by doing
alert(document.domain) instead of alert('XSS en Google AUDIT') ;)

Cheers,
Gynvael
