looks like a pile of shit , right ? well its not.
one thing i want you to always double check is the "Server Type"
to make sure you get the right name.
go ahead and tab over to google.
in this case piratebay is using a server based on lighttpd.
so lets search for "Lighthttpd exploits" on google.
and there we go a huge list of exploits for "lighthttpd" based webservers.
for example -
www.milw0rm.com/exploits/4437
www.securityfocus.com/bid/23515
securityreason.com/securityalert/3127
from there on you're on your own =).
just a bit of help.
those exploits listed might be outdated, didnt try em so .
ne'ways good luck, hope it helped.
