'PC Matic' flagging Adobe Flash player and Shockwave?

Below is a screenshot of my PC Matic's scan results.  It lists two Adobe items as vulnerable and recommends updating the apps.  However, when I visited the Adobe website to check Flash Player and Shockwave, it gave me a message that both were installed and working properly.  I don't understand what the problem is exactly or is there even really a problem?

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

The current version of Shockwave is 12.2.5, and Flash Player is 26.0.0.137. You can get the installers from the bottom of the adobe.com home page.

Now, IE 11, Edge, and Chrome, all come with Flash Player built in, you may need to update Chrome to get the later Flash player, and for IE 11 and Edge it would be Microsoft that would send out an update.

If you're using Firefox or another browser, then use the installer links at adobe.com.
