Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes. Anyone with network access to the affected eComplaint instance and the `DocumentOpen.aspx` endpoint can attempt to exploit the issue, subject to whatever minimal access control is in place.

What level of access does an attacker need?

The attacker needs the same level of access required to reach the document download endpoint. In some deployments this may require basic authentication or an application account; in others, the endpoint may be reachable from any user with general access to the system.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this issue?

Introduce robust, centralized authorization checks that validate, on each document download request, that the requesting user is allowed to access the case or record associated with the given identifier, and avoid using raw, user-supplied identifiers directly for file retrieval.
