Package: kodi
Version: 2:17.1+dfsg1-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Please read this:

TLDR;
An attacker could gain control of any Kodi device through the use of malicious
code placed within subtitles. Hypothetically, if an infected subtitle file were
to be downloaded by Kodi, it could give a hacker full control over your device.
This is particularly concerning when it comes to automatically downloaded
subtitles.

Kind Regards
Brent Clark
