Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes. An attacker who can reach the `/newsportal/admin/edit-category.php` endpoint over the network can attempt SQL injection by crafting the `Category` parameter, subject to any authentication or access controls in front of the admin interface.

Does an attacker need admin credentials to exploit this?

In many deployments, access to `edit-category.php` may require admin authentication, but the vulnerability itself is independent of authentication. If the admin area is exposed or access controls are weak, the risk of exploitation increases significantly.

What is the safest general fix pattern?

Replace any dynamic SQL built from user input with parameterized queries or prepared statements in the data access layer, and validate the `Category` field against strict, well-defined rules before executing any database operation.
