Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes. An attacker who can reach the /admin/contactus.php endpoint over the network can attempt to exploit the pagetitle parameter via crafted HTTP requests, subject to whatever access controls protect that route.

Does an attacker need valid credentials to exploit this?

That depends on how the application is deployed. If the admin area is access-controlled, an attacker would typically need valid credentials or another way to reach /admin/contactus.php. If it is exposed without strong authentication, then anonymous remote exploitation is possible.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this issue?

Replace all dynamic SQL that incorporates pagetitle (and other user inputs) with parameterized queries or prepared statements, and ensure that input is validated for length and format before being passed to the database layer.
