Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

It can be, depending on how the TREK instance is exposed. If the affected routes are accessible over the internet or an internal network, a remote attacker with network access could potentially exploit the missing authorization checks.

Does an attacker need to be authenticated?

That depends on the deployment. In some setups, attackers might need a basic account to reach the affected endpoints, while in others, if the routes are publicly exposed, even unauthenticated users could send requests.

What is the safest general fix pattern?

The safest approach is to implement strict, resource-level authorization for every Immich trip photo management route, ensuring that each request checks whether the caller is allowed to access or modify the targeted trip and its photos.
