Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable over the network?

Yes, if Dokploy is accessible over the network and an attacker can authenticate to an account that has access to the `/docker-container-terminal` endpoint, they can potentially trigger command injection remotely.

Does an attacker need administrative access to exploit this?

Not necessarily. The attacker generally needs any level of authenticated access that permits opening a container terminal or interacting with the affected WebSocket endpoint. Misconfigured roles or overly broad permissions can make exploitation easier.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this type of issue?

The most robust fix is to remove shell parsing from the execution path: use structured, parameterized APIs for interacting with Docker or the OS, validate parameters as strict identifiers, and avoid passing user-controlled data to a shell interpreter.
