There are a few important things to mention here, firstly Adobe being the wonderful company they are will not update flash. They may push some security fixes. But have stated they will provide any more updates to flash. So the version provided will be the only version for the time being. I'm sorry to say there is nothing under our control, as we do not influence Adobe.
With all of that out of the way, you CAN install Google Chrome. Google has a deal with Adobe to provide flash on their platform/browser. It's commonly reffered to as pepper-flash. It would mean no longer using firefox. Or simply running Chrome when there is a need. I do this similarly to watch videos from my ISP services. Instructions for installing can be found on the manual here. I suggest reading some common issues found on the manual if you have time. I will also post the steps below :
Google Chrome - Popular web browser from Google.
For 32bit open a terminal and type:
For 64bit open a terminal and type:
When the install has finished, Google Chrome can be found in Menu, Internet.
