Hi,
I was wondering if there is a security patch for 1.5.6.4 that I could install rather than have to upgrade for now? If not, I would be interested in consulting and hiring someone who could manually fix known security vulnerabilities.
Thank you.

I would upgrade to 1.5.6.5. Much easier.

I don't believe the the unofficial versions of 1.5.6.5 will contain all the latest security patches. There have been vulnerabilities reported this year that will affect 1.5.x versions. Please correct me if I am wrong.
I help maintain a fork of OpenCart 1.5.5 on GitHub with the latest patches and about 300+ other bug fixes. Haven't done 1.5.6 yet as it's mainly 1.5.5 with OpenBay (may have its own extra issues) and a few payment modules added.

That's partly correct, at least, when it comes small changes, like placing an INT inI don't believe the the unofficial versions of 1.5.6.5 will contain all the latest security patches

If you are referring to https://github.com/opencart/opencart/issues/7218. That's not a security issue, just preventing warnings added to PHP 7.1.
Well, whatever shows up, not supposed to exist by default, is an error to me ... 
But it's officially confirmed, and that's all, what counts!
And to work with PHP7+, the 1.5.6.x system/library/encryption.php file needs to replaced,
like in OC2+ Versions too, it's exactly the same file, just to have this mentioned too:
