Yes, saw this yesterday.

I suspect there may be significant security issues in the existing version, and some of the vendors selling Flash-based applications must have pushed for fixes...the move doesn't make any sense from the market angle.

Wow, Adobe has decided to update its Flash Player for Linux. Previously, the
NPAPI Flash plugin (which allows for use in browsers such as Firefox)
was kept at v11.2 for several years now. But in a blog post, Adobe has
announced

"...we are updating the beta channel with Linux NPAPI Flash Player by
moving it forward and in sync with the modern release branch
(currently version 23).  We have done this significant change to
improve security and provide additional mitigation to the Linux
community."
