Paper: https://www.exploit-db.com/docs/english/39658-exploiting-buffer-overflows-on-mips-architecture.pdf

Summary:
--------

ZHONE RGW is vulnerable to stack-based buffer overflow attacks due to
the use of unsafe string functions without sufficient input validation
in the httpd binary. Two exploitable conditions were discovered when
requesting a large (7000) character filename ending in .cgi, .tst,
.html, .cmd, .conf, .txt and .wl, in GET or POST requests. Vantage
Point has developed working code execution exploits for these issues.
