Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes, if Coral Server is exposed over the network and the /api/v1/sessions endpoint is reachable from untrusted clients, an attacker can exploit it remotely by issuing session creation requests.

What level of access does an attacker need?

The attacker only needs network access to the vulnerable endpoint; because authorization is missing, no valid user account, agent identity, or token is strictly required to trigger resource-intensive operations.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this issue?

The safest approach is to enforce strong, centralized authentication and authorization for all session-related endpoints, ensuring that session creation is only permitted for authenticated principals with explicit permissions, and that heavy operations are not performed until after these checks succeed.
