If you are using KODI media player then you should know that it could be used as a malware distribution platform for cybercriminals.

Researchers from ESET said that malware can spread through Kodi in three different ways. 

1. They could add the URL of a malicious repository to their Kodi installation, which would download add-ons whenever they update their Kodi installations 
2. They could install a ready-made Kodi build that includes the URL of a malicious repository. 
3. Users could install a ready-made Kodi build that contains a malicious add-on but no link to a repository for updates.

“Cybercriminals are increasingly abusing add-ons and scripting functionalities in response to the tightening of security measures for operating systems

The top five countries affected by the threat, according to ESET’s telemetry, are the United States, Israel, Greece, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.
