Auto-Update asks me to update firmware that doesn't even fit my laptop model? [closed]

I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 with a 2016 Thinkpad X1C. These days I keep on getting an update notification for a "security fix 184.55.3510" for Thinkpad X1 Yoga 1st.
I wonder if I can somehow skip this particular update while still being able to get other update notifications? This doesn't even fit my model.
Thanks!
Here's a screen capture from Ubuntu Software:

It is unclear which package is updated. I also could not find what's "security fix 184.55.3510".

A screenshot might work best to show the context, and what application is giving that alert.

Some systems now support UEFI updates direct from Linux. Are you sure this is not correct for your system? fwupd.org/lvfs/devicelist
