Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes. As long as the vulnerable SmartBlog endpoint is accessible over the network and accepts the `id_post` parameter from user input, an attacker can exploit the issue remotely via HTTP requests.

Does an attacker need authentication or special privileges?

Not necessarily. If the details controller is publicly reachable, no authentication may be required. In deployments where the route is restricted, an attacker would need at least the minimal credentials required to reach that route.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this issue?

The most robust fix is to replace any string-concatenated SQL involving `id_post` with parameterized queries or ORM methods that separate query structure from data. Combined with strict input validation for `id_post` and reduced database privileges, this significantly lowers the risk of injection.
