Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes. As described, the attack can be initiated remotely by sending crafted requests to the vulnerable report endpoint, provided the application is reachable over the network.

Does an attacker need to be authenticated to exploit this?

It depends on how the School Management System is configured. If the reports page is accessible without strong authentication or from shared user accounts, attackers may not need special credentials. If it is restricted to authenticated staff or administrators, an attacker would first need to obtain or abuse such access.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this issue?

The most robust fix is to replace any string-concatenated SQL with parameterized queries or prepared statements and strictly validate the `ay` parameter against a whitelist of allowed values. This should be applied consistently across all database interactions, not just the affected file.
