Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

It can be, if remote users or systems can influence configuration-derived parameters that Executrix uses to build shell commands. If those values are exposed via APIs, UI forms, or upstream workflow inputs, an attacker may be able to trigger command injection remotely.

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

The attacker must be able to control or tamper with parameters such as PLACE_NAME or similar configuration fields that end up inside the command string. This could involve direct configuration access, compromising an upstream system that writes these values, or abusing a workflow that persistently stores user input.

What is the safest general fix pattern?

The safest approach is to stop constructing command lines from concatenated strings and avoid invoking a shell where possible. Use process execution APIs with argument arrays, strictly validate any user- or configuration-derived values, and ensure no untrusted data is ever interpreted by `/bin/sh -c` or equivalent shells.
