Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes. If the Blue Access Cobalt web interface is reachable over the network, an attacker can exploit the authentication bypass remotely by sending crafted or proxied HTTP requests.

Does an attacker need valid credentials or an existing account?

No. The core issue is that certain functionality can be accessed without completing the normal login process, so exploitation does not require valid credentials.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this issue?

The most robust fix is to centralize authentication enforcement so that every sensitive endpoint is protected by mandatory, server-side checks (e.g., authentication middleware) and to audit all routes to ensure none can be reached without a valid session.
