       On my yum.log (SL5.11) I saw :

       Nov 26 04:10:27 Updated: flash-plugin-11.2.202.424-release.x86_64
       ...
       Dec 10 05:29:02 Updated: flash-plugin-11.2.202.425-release.x86_64
       
       but    in    firefox   plugins   it  was   still    seen    as
       flash-plugin-11.2.202.424 and blocked as a security hazard.

       so I had to remove it and re-install :

       Dec 15 23:40:08 Erased: flash-plugin
       Dec 15 23:41:49 Installed: flash-plugin-11.2.202.425-release.x86_64
       
       and now it is OK inside firefox.

       HTH.
