⚠️ This code has unpatched critical security vulnerability. Do NOT use this or any older version of Sparkle ⚠️

🚫 Sparkle 1.5 is not compatible with OS X 10.11 El Capitan 🚫 Please use a newer version of Sparkle.

  • Important Changes
    • Sparkle now requires DSA signatures on your updates. Check the documentation for more information on how to set that up if you don't already sign your updates. You can bypass this requirement if you deliver both your appcast and your updates over SSL.
  • Sparkle will no longer display release notes located at file:// URLs, since Javascript on such a page would be able to read files on your file system.
  • For security reasons, Sparkle will refuse to install updates which appear to "downgrade" the app.
  • SUUpdater now implements new keys: "automaticallyDownloadsUpdates", "lastUpdateCheckDate", and "sendsSystemProfile."
  • Fixed a bug that could prevent SUProbingUpdateDriver from working.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented the updaterWillRelaunchApplication: delegate method from getting called.
  • Fixed displaying release notes transmitted "loose" in the key.
  • Fixed Sparkle compilation on 10.4 systems.
  • Fixed a bug that could cause window confusion if an app changed its LSUIElement at runtime.
  • Added support for Sparkle 1.1's behavior of disabling updates when the check interval is 0.
  • Sparkle can now handle appending parameters to URLs which already have parameters.
  • If an update's sparkle:shortVersionString is the same as the host's CFBundleShortVersionString, the sparkle:version and CFBundleVersion will be presented in parentheticals.
