"Update notice ELSA-2022-0538 (from ol7-optional-latest) is broken"

MicrolinuxFeb 19 2022

Hi,
For the last 24 hours or so (at least) my inbox gets flooded with a tsunami of cron-related messages from all my servers running Oracle Linux 7.

Subject: Cron <root@sd-107066> run-parts /etc/cron.hourly
Update notice ELSA-2022-0538 (from ol7-optional-latest) is broken, or a bad duplicate, 
skipping. You should report this problem to the owner of the ol7-optional-latest 
repository. (...)

I tried to empty the metadata cache with yum clean all, but to no avail. These cron messages keep flooding my inbox.
Any idea what's going on here and how I can solve this problem?
Cheers from the sunny South of France,
Niki
