Flash 24.0.0.186 crash on Fedora 25 Linux with Firefox
Based on thread Adobe Forum thread #2251159, I'm using firefox-50.1.0 downloaded from mozilla.org instead of Fedora's built-in Firefox. The crashes have been reduced, but still occur. Here is my crash report from about:crashes:
I also have the core dump and I downloaded the matching symbols using symbols.py in gdb and I ran back trace:

The top stack frame is in libflashplayer.so. Is there any way to get debug symbols for this shared library so that we can see symbols for this stack? I can upload the core dump if needed (225MB).
Note that I had to copy libflashplayer.so from /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so into ~/.mozilla/plugins since the downloaded Firefox didn't pick that up automatically.
