Description

As reported on slack, there was an issue where a new version of a plugin was released, but it didn't show up in the update checks, despite the new version showing on wordpress.org/plugins.

It turned out that the cause was the update_source table getting out of sync for the plugin. That seems to be a race condition in caches and when the update job is run mid way through a new version of a plugin being released.

I'm going to add a check which validates that the version field is in sync, and not just the dates/disabled status.
