Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes. As described, an attacker can exploit the issue remotely by sending crafted requests to the exposed /src/chkuser.php endpoint, provided it is reachable over the network.

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

Typically, only the ability to interact with the application like a normal user (or even as an unauthenticated client, if the endpoint is public) is required. No direct database access is needed, since the attack rides through the application layer.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this issue?

The most robust approach is to refactor all affected queries to use prepared statements or parameterized queries, ensuring that the Username value is passed as a bound parameter rather than concatenated into SQL strings. In parallel, apply strict input constraints and reduce database privileges for the application account.
