How easily can this vulnerability be exploited?

Exploitation is straightforward because it only requires sending crafted HTTP POST requests to a known endpoint, and exploit information has been publicly disclosed. An attacker does not need local access to the server, only network reachability to the management interface.

Does an attacker need to be authenticated to exploit this issue?

The description does not explicitly state whether authentication is required. If the affected endpoint is accessible without strong authentication or is weakly protected, the vulnerability could be exploitable by unauthenticated remote attackers. Properly restricting access to the management interface can significantly reduce risk.

What is the safest general fix pattern for developers and vendors?

The robust fix is to remove dependence on shell command construction entirely for this workflow and replace it with safe, parameterized APIs or native functions. Additionally, enforce strict input validation for `sessionPath` and any similar parameters, ensuring only expected, whitelisted values or patterns are accepted.
