Adobe stopped releasing Flash for Linux a while back.  IIRC the only
"supported" Flash on Linux is distributed as a part of Google Chrome
(and that's going away sometime soon too, Chrome on all platforms will
no longer support Flash).

Don't know about C7 but I just yum updated my C6 system.

It's still supported on C7:

$ yum list | grep flash
flash-plugin.x86_64    32.0.0.314-release     @adobe-linux-x86_64
...

I think you'll find the latest releases won't run on CentOS 7:

% ldd libflashplayer.so
./libflashplayer.so: /lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.21' not found (required by ./libflashplayer.so)

and hence Firefox won't load this version ...

The last version that runs on CentOS 7 is 32.0.0.270
