Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes, it can be exploited remotely by any attacker able to observe or intercept the network traffic between the client and server, such as on public Wi-Fi or through compromised network infrastructure.

Does an attacker need valid credentials or prior access to exploit this?

No prior authentication is required. The attacker only needs network-level visibility to capture the cleartext credentials as legitimate users authenticate.

What is the safest general fix pattern?

The safest approach is to require strong transport-layer protection (e.g., TLS) for all authentication and session-related communication and to ensure that the application does not send credentials if a secure channel is not correctly established and verified.
