"A Open Heart message should contain of a single emoji sequence. However, the emoji sequence may be followed by arbitrary data which the server is expected to ignore."
Italics mine.
That arbitrary data could be a multi-gigabyte zip file of some expensive program, classified data, copyrighted video/music,or anything for all this spec cares.
Ok, so? Provided the receiving server is configured to redirect the arbitrary data into the trash, you're in the clear, right? Not your fault someone sent you extra data, and you're not expected to keep it, and if you don't keep it anywhere, law enforcement could search your server but there's nothing to find because your system doesn't retain anything from the arbitrary data.
