Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable over the network?

Yes, but only by authenticated users with sufficient ERPNext privileges. An attacker who can log in as a System Manager (or equivalent) and access the server script functionality can trigger the vulnerability remotely through the web interface or API.

What level of access does an attacker need to exploit this issue?

The attacker must have a valid ERPNext account with the

role or any role that grants permission to create or edit server scripts via `/app/server-script`. Without such privileges, the vulnerable code path is not reachable under normal configurations.
