Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes, it can be exploited remotely if the Flow Import endpoint is network-accessible and an attacker can provide or control the imported file. The attack surface is exposed via the HTTP API rather than direct filesystem access.

What level of access does an attacker need?

The attacker needs the ability to trigger the flow import functionality and influence the content or location of the imported file (for example, uploading a flow file or pointing to a file they control). No local shell access is required if the API is exposed.

What is the safest general fix pattern?

The most robust fix is to stop treating flow definitions as executable Python code. Replace direct module imports with a declarative, data-only representation and process it using strict schema validation. If dynamic behavior must be supported, only load from a trusted, administrator-managed plugin set.
