Kodi, previously known as XBMC, has been updated to 17.3 and is now available to download.

Kodi 17.3 is a minor bugfix release and patches a recent security hole involving malicious subtitle zip files.

The exploit involved a user downloading a malicious subtitle zip file that would then allow attackers to take control of the compromised system.
