Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes. If the WeGIA instance is exposed over the network and the vulnerable script is reachable, an attacker can exploit it remotely by sending crafted HTTP requests.

Does an attacker need a valid user account to exploit this?

Not necessarily. Because the script lacks authentication and authorization checks, network access to the endpoint may be sufficient to trigger employee-only functionality, including mass data injection.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this issue?

The most robust approach is to ensure the script's functionality is handled by the central controller, inheriting global authentication and role-based authorization. Any standalone scripts should either be removed, restricted from direct access, or refactored to call shared security middleware before executing business logic.
