Mac Color Sync reports header message digest not correct

I recently got a new iMac Pro. After installing Adobe CC, the Color Sync Utility started to automatically show up. When I ran verify I got the following errors below.

I ran Repair (I had to change permissions to do this). Repair indicated it fixed them all, however re-running Verify indicated only one actually got fixed.

I then checked my 2016 MBP. Lo and behold, same 24 bad profiles. Is this just an Adobe thing? An Apple thing?

I assume at this point it doesn't really affect anything for me since I've had the MPB since 2016 and didn't even know about the problem until now.

I've seen some postings related to fixing this, but nothing really indicated why these are bad, if it's okay, etc.

Checking 77 profiles...

I'm having this issue right now and for some reason, my blues seem to be ut of sync. Are these two things related?

Hi,

Do you say "my blue seem to be out of sync" ?

The error message from Color Sync Utility can be ignored and is not relevant.

Ask questions in the relevant application forum.
