“Any subtitles that you already have as text file, are embedded in the video stream or are” in DVDs or Blu-rays should be safe, they added. They also advised that the vulnerability is only there if users enable a download add-on for subtitles and then download zipped subtitles. Check Point discovered the vulnerability, and the Kodi team fixed it in version 17.2. The Kodi team also addressed the reports about the malicious zip files containing subtitles, which have been found to be infecting and harming media players equipped with the popular media center software. So it’s best to check back soon to make sure your software is on the latest version if you want to go that route instead of using the download from their website. They’re also updating the versions that are available in the Google Play Store and the Windows Store, although it may take a bit longer for them to be updated to Kodi 17.3. They explained that all the add-ons and installed skins should keep working. The Kodi team said users can just install the current build on top of their previous Kodi installation with no need for a reinstall or cleanup. Just click on the platform you use and then select the release build. The Kodi 17.3 download is available here.
