They use 1.5b and will continue to do so because they need to support Snow Leopard. Later versions of Sparkle require 10.7 or later. 

This is why the version of Sparkle is really quite irrelevant (at least concerning the vulnerability under discussion). What matters is whether the appcast and release notes are https or not. If they are, as I understand it, the Sparkle version is not vulnerable, no matter what version it is.

Again I’ve collated all this info in the blog post I linked to earlier.

Best
