https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/plugincheck/ (and presumably other localisations)
believes
   ~/.mozilla/firefox//pluginreg.dat
which does not get updated if firefox is running when a plugin is updated
(that or the change gets overwritten ...).

Perhaps that information is being used for the "This Plugin is vulnerable"
message ?

On Scientific Linux 6, with the RedHat/SL firefox ESR 52.1.0,
if I closed firefox, remove the libflashplayer lines from pluginreg.dat
and restart firefox, then the plugincheck web page gives the correct 
plugin version.

Re: [Mozilla Enterprise] Firefox ESR 52.1.0 - Adobe Flash Outdated on Enterprise Linux 7?

[Jorge Villalobos]

The latest Flash plugin block covers up to version 25.0.0.163, which is
detailed on this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1363513

It could be a problem of the plugin misreporting its version number. You
can look for that data on about:plugins
