 Replying to [comment:4 SergeyBiryukov]:
 > The API request is performed by
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.8.1/src/wp-admin/includes
 /plugin-install.php#L101 plugins_api()] via
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.8.1/src/wp-admin/includes
 /plugin-install.php#L449 install_plugin_information()], I don't see any
 caching there at a glance.

 Then what could be the reason for this behavior? I get a notice about a
 plugin update, click the details link to open the modal and get an old
 changelog info. If I switch to the page in the plugin directory there is
 the newest changelog info and sometimes the info is on local version of
 the plugin directory (and sometimes not).

 I would expect to see the current information in my backend, if I get an
 update notice. If there is a cache it should be invalidated. If not, I
 have no clue what the reason of this issue can be ... any ideas?
