Comment:

 You are correct that the problem is not worded exactly the same, but the
 underlying issue is, the base report for #23318 is that the details for
 the plugin shown is for a different plugin (which is the same problem as
 you are having).

 You'll notice that other topics that have the same problem as yours have
 also been tagged as duplicates of that thread because it all boils down to
 the same core problem: There's no explicitly unique identifier for the
 plugins, and as such the API finds the closest possible match if no
 identical match is available.

 See for example #13928 which is also marked a duplicate of #23318
