I'm sure this wasn't intentional, but the wording stuck out to me.

   Summary

   The Breeze Communication Server and Breeze Live Server do not
   sufficiently validate some RTMP data. This can cause server instability
   or crashes for licensed customers.



How about .. unlicensed customers? If you warez a copy, are you safe from this 
attack? Does this imply that licensed customers are sending RTMP data 
back/forth to Macromedia, and the DoS lies in that?
