Google has encountered securtity problems with Google Base, Google Sitemaps and Gmail. The security hole allows attackers to steal sensitive information from users.

A flaw in security was recently discovered in Google Base. The flaw allowed attackers to steal cookies and other information from users of the service. It also allowed attackers to submit fraudulent forms on the Google Base web page.

A similar flaw in security was discovered Google Sitemaps. The flaw allowed users to view statistics for AOL, MSN and other internet properties with Google’s Verification File on their server.

This allows competitors to view top search queries and query clicks and use it to their advantage.

Another security flaw was also discovered in the Gmail service. The flaw allowed hackers to take control of a user’s Gmail account.
