Is this vulnerability remotely exploitable?

Yes. An attacker can exploit the issue remotely by sending crafted HTTP requests to the pay.php endpoint as long as it is reachable over the network.

What level of access does an attacker need?

Typically only network access to the application is required. Depending on deployment, exploitation may be possible without authentication if pay.php is accessible to unauthenticated users.

What is the safest general fix pattern?

Refactor the affected code to use parameterized queries or prepared statements for all database operations and ensure the mpesa parameter is never concatenated directly into SQL strings.
