Wow that is interesting. Did you report this ?

Of course. Unfortunately, we only have NBD-Response on our Microsoft
support contract, and so far i've just received a boilerplate mail.
Luckily i was able to figure out what the issue is on my own.

Any idea why it would have done that ?

By my non-existing programming expertise, it looks like the licensing
mechanism employed by OCS relied on using "broken" ASN.1, which was
accepted before the security fix, and not after. This is mostly a
guess from the error messages i've seen when trying to fix the issue.

My blog post last night about this topic:

By now, it's more or less official, it's on several TechNet blogs.
