You can use radare. It is a free framework.

$radare2 -aarm -b32 test.cgi

CGI is not a specific type of file; it more so describes the way the file is interacted with. A CGI file could be a script written in any scripting language (e.g. Python, Bash, Perl etc.), or it could be an ELF executable like you have here.

Since it's just a normal ELF, you can use any common disassembly/decompilation tool that you would use for other binaries.
