WordPress Update – Quarantined Files

The past two updates to WordPress have resulted in files being quarantined. I’m not sure if these files are legitimate and why they are quarantined after automatic shut down and backup has been performed. The files are flash files which make me suspicious since flash is famous for security flaws and is no longer actively supported by major browsers.
