Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes, if an attacker can obtain a setup code through remote means—such as access to chat logs, screenshots, ticketing systems, or centralized logs—they can potentially extract and reuse the embedded gateway credential without physical proximity to the device.

What level of access does an attacker need to exploit this issue?

The attacker must be able to access any location where setup codes are stored or shared (for example, internal messaging channels, customer support systems, log archives, or captured terminal output). They do not need direct access to the original pairing device if they can retrieve the historical setup code.
