How to identify those legacy sw that use extensions? This notification is general. Is there a tool that find sw to be updated?

I have received a notification that some legacy sw on my Mac use kernel extensions that would not be supported in the future and I have to contact the ws developer for update. Question: how to identify those sw?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.14

You can open System Information (About this Mac > System Report) and view the Extensions list under Software. Sort it by Obtained from and look for the ones not made by Apple. However, there are about a dozen that are bundled by Apple that are not made by Apple. Those are not the ones you are looking for. They are mostly related to RAID drives.
