What are some common methods for distributing malware?

Some common methods for distributing malware include drive-by downloads, where malware is automatically downloaded onto a user's computer when they visit a compromised website, or through the use of infected USB drives that automatically execute the malware when inserted into a computer. Other methods include disguising malware as legitimate software downloads or attachments in phishing emails, or exploiting vulnerabilities in software to deliver the malware payload.
