Malware from spotify app after new update

BlackRose2335 — Wed, 20 Jul 2022 19:03:17 GMT

Hey,

Ever since my Spotify app updated to version 8.7.48.1062 (today), I got a notification from my anti-virus software (Eset) that a malware or trojan (TrojanDropper.Agent.KBA) has been quarantined and is coming from the spotify app.

As a safety precaution, I have uninstalled the app from my phone as I am worried that a malware may infect it.

Thanks for your help
