This update is recommended for sandboxed apps that enable Sparkle's Downloader XPC Service because it fixes a bug where an app may show a "Downloader" differing from previously opened versions prompt warning. The sandboxing guide for the Downloader Service and Code Signing has been updated.
For users running macOS 14.4 or later, a Gatekeeper scan is performed on the new update before installing it, which may skip a "Verifying.." dialog when relaunching the app.
