Use CVE-2016-2073.

The CVE-2016-2073 PoC is an '&' followed by three characters, one of
which is a 0273 character. The PoC in 749115 has an unexpected
character immediately after a "<!DOCTYPE html" substring. We feel that
the CVE-2016-2073 report can have that unique ID on the basis of (at
least) a different attack methodology. CVE assignment for 749115 is
also possible unless 749115 already has a CVE ID.
