Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes, if the Godot MCP server is reachable over a network or IPC channel by an attacker who can invoke tools that accept `projectPath` or similar parameters. In such configurations, crafted requests can lead directly to remote code execution.

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

The attacker must be able to submit requests to the MCP server that trigger `executeOperation` with attacker-controlled input. No direct shell or OS-level access is required; only access to the MCP interface that exposes the vulnerable tools.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this issue?

The most robust fix is to stop constructing shell command strings with user input and avoid `exec()`-style APIs entirely. Use process-execution APIs that take argument arrays, validate and normalize inputs (especially paths), and constrain operations to a defined project root and known-safe executables.
