Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes. Any remote user who can reach the Runtipi API and knows or can guess that a password reset is active during the 15-minute window can exploit the issue; no prior login is required.

What level of access does an attacker need?

The attacker only needs network access to the vulnerable Runtipi instance. They do not need valid credentials, but the exploit window is limited to periods when a legitimate password reset request is active.

What is the safest general fix pattern for this issue?

Implement a robust password reset flow that requires a strong, single-use reset token securely delivered to the legitimate operator, and ensure the reset-password endpoint validates this token (and its expiry) before allowing a password change.
