AFAIK, there are three official variants: ST-LINK, ST-LINK/v2, ST-LINK/V2-1. For all three, there exist various firmware version.
A non-free update utility for the non-free firmware can be found at:

How does this affect stm8flash? Maybe some issues we see are not just specific to certain hardware clones, but also to certain firmware versions?
