      For Norton Security VulnDetect detects the version 22.23.1.15 and recommends the version 22.23.1.21.
      In the Help -> About window of Norton Security you see the version number 22.23.1.21:

      f2242031-5b9a-4e46-83db-c7d24dccd023-image.png

      So the recommended version is already installed!

      The reason is, that the version numbers in the EXE file also show the wrong version numbers:

      File name and path:     C:\Program Files\Norton Security\Engine\22.23.1.21\uiStub.exe
      Product Name:           Norton Protection Center
      Internal Name:          uiStub
      Original Filename:      uiStub.exe
      
      File Description:       Norton Security UI Stub
      Company:                NortonLifeLock Inc.

      File Version String:    22.23.1.15
      File Version:           22.23.1.15
      Product Version String: 22.23
      Product Version:        22.23.0.0
      

      The only way to get the correct version number is the version in the path of the EXE.

      By the way: SUMo detects the correct version, but uses an other file:

      File name and path:     C:\Program Files (x86)\NortonInstaller\{0C55C096-0F1D-4F28-AAA2-85EF591126E7}\NGC\562C4DD5\22.23.1.21\InstStub.exe
      Product Name:           Norton Security
      Internal Name:          Norton Security
      Original Filename:      NGC_Generic_SuperMUI.exe
      
      File Description:       Norton Security
      Company:                NortonLifeLock Inc.
