Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

It can be, depending on how files are supplied to the app. If attackers can send or host documents that users then import (for example via email, messaging, or downloaded content), they can attempt to exploit the issue without direct physical access to the device.

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

The attacker needs the ability to control or influence a file that the application will import. They do not typically require direct access to the internal storage; the vulnerability lies in how the app itself writes the imported file to internal locations.

What is the safest general fix pattern for developers?

Route all imported content through a dedicated, non-executable, user-content directory, generate internal file names rather than trusting external ones, and ensure the app cannot overwrite configuration, executable, or other security-sensitive files.
