Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes. Any party that can reach the affected AVideo API endpoint over the network can exploit the issue, without needing valid credentials.

Does an attacker need an existing account or special privileges?

No. The decryptString action is exposed without authentication, so no account, session, or privilege level is required to submit ciphertext and receive plaintext.

What is the safest general fix pattern?

Restrict decryption operations to authenticated and authorized callers, or redesign the system so that decryption is performed only on the server as part of specific business workflows and the plaintext is never exposed generically via an API. In many cases, replacing reversible encryption with signed, non-reversible tokens further reduces risk.
