Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable over the network?

Yes. Any attacker who can reach TCP port 5757 on a host running a ZAI Shell P2P session can connect without authentication and submit commands. Execution still depends on the host user approving those commands.

Does an attacker need local or authenticated access to exploit this issue?

No prior local or account-level authentication is required. The only requirement is network connectivity to the exposed P2P port and an active terminal sharing session in `--no-ai` mode.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this kind of vulnerability?

The safest pattern is to enforce strong authentication and authorization on all remote command or collaboration channels, and to avoid directly executing remote input as commands. Where remote proposals are needed, they should be treated as untrusted suggestions with robust checks and explicit, high-visibility user confirmation.
