We are Spice Hut, a new startup company that just made it big! We offer a variety of spices and club sandwiches (in case you get hungry), but that is not why you are here. To be truthful, we aren't sure if our developers know what they are doing and our security concerns are rising. We ask that you perform a thorough penetration test and try to own root. Good luck!

Answer the questions below
What is the secret spicy soup recipe?

What are the contents of user.txt?

What are the contents of root.txt?

Spice Hut was very happy with your results and it is guaranteed they will spread word about your excellence with their partners. Astounding work!
