Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 (11.0.9600.17107) MSHTML!CStr::_Free Crash

Another crash in IE11, maybe someone will find it interesting. It occurs when calling the Developer Tools (F12). After i finished minimizing the test case it turned out to be just one line:


 To reproduce the crash it is required to:
1. enable pageheap
2. open the html file
3. press F12/open Developer Tools
 Also you need the exact build version as in the title (or lower) because this issue was fixed in the last Microsoft Security Bulletin (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/security/ms14-jun.aspx). I have not really investigated that crash, because i found it the day before patch tuesday, and when it got fixed i moved on.
