How broadly exploitable is this vulnerability?

Exploitability depends on how widely the vulnerable JS and associated endpoints are exposed. If the application is reachable over the internet and the hard-coded credentials are accepted by backend services, a remote attacker can often abuse them without prior authentication.

Does an attacker need valid user credentials to exploit this?

Not necessarily. If static credentials in the JavaScript are sufficient to perform privileged actions or retrieve sensitive data, an attacker may not need any legitimate account; they can rely on the hard-coded values instead.

What is the safest general fix pattern?

Remove hard-coded credentials from all code paths, especially from client-facing JavaScript, and ensure that authentication and authorization are enforced solely on the server using securely stored, per-user or per-service credentials.
