Thanks for reporting, it's a serious issue 👍

I'll close this issue when I've shipped a stable release with the updated Sparkle.

Although the Sparkle.framework version is older, KeepingYouAwake uses https for it’s update, so it’ should not be vulnerable to this issue.

A fix has been released as of version 1.13.1. KeepingYouAwake was one of the few apps on my system flagged for using an older version.

Sorry, I was looking at v1.22b1 which used https, but for whatever reason I see that v1.3.1 did not. So looks like I need to update to v1.4b1 immediately.

I suggest closing this ticket since KYA version 1.4.0 includes Sparkle 1.14.0
