Firefox is reporting 11.2.202.425 as 11.2.202.424

[BobLfoot]

My system is Centos 7 x86_64 and the kernel is 3.10.0-123.13.2.el7.x86_64 .  The result of rpm -qi flash-plugin is 11.2.202.425 and this is the same version reported by the Adobe check your version page.  However,  about:plugins shows 11.2.202.424 and each page firefox visits which uses flashes gives a warning for outdated/bulberable flash.  Is there any solution to this.

Do a clean install

Thanks for the response, but the page you reference does not mention Centos Linux only windows and MacOS.  I have already done a yum erase flash-plugin ; yum erase firefox.  Check and make sure libflashplayer.so had been deleted.  reboot the system and then yum install firefox, yum install flash-plugin.  The problem still persists.  rpm -qi reports 11.2.202.425 ; Flash Player Help also reports 11.2.202.425 but Firefox about:plugins reports 11.2.202.424,

you can check here to see if it has anything that helps you, Problems playing protected video content | Ubuntu Linux, Flash Player 11

otherwise, maybe someone else can help you: <moved from Downloading, Installing, Setting Up to Installing Flash Player>

Turns out it was Firefox issue.  Their database for plugins needed to be blown away and rebuilt.

Yeah but i can't really find anything on how to do it. I am not a Linux/Unix geek, but i quickly found out it can be solved by removing the default directory (settings, bookmarks, add-ons will be gone),

rm -rf ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/*

Or by doing this, which will work make Firefox work like intended (not sure if it will stay like this..)

sed -i 's/11.2.202.424/11.2.202.425/g' ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/pluginreg.dat
