This bug was fixed in the package update-manager - 1:24.04.4
---------------
update-manager (1:24.04.4) noble; urgency=low
* d/control: Depend on ubuntu-advantage-tools >= 30~.
Fixes edge case whereby the program crashes upon an incomplete
response from ua security-status (LP: #2049785).
* The New Release dialog should take precedence over a list of updates dialog
if the latter would only show Ubuntu Pro updates in an unattached system.
(LP: #2051115).

Bug description:
The listing of Ubuntu Pro packages has been introduced in recent
versions of update-manager, but as an undesired consequence, in up to
date machines unattached to Ubuntu Pro, update-manager stopped
prompting to upgrade to a next supported release.
Ubuntu Pro packages should be merely an addition to this program and
not alter its main behavior.
[Test plan]
--->
ua detach --assume-yes
apt update
apt upgrade
apt install hello
update-manager
<---
Instead of listing Ubuntu Pro packages (the hello one, for example,
always has a ESM update) that would be installable if the user
attached to Ubuntu Pro, the update-manager window should simply do as
it did in older versions, namely, state that software is up to date,
and, if a newer LTS is available, suggest to the user to update to it.
[Where problems could occur]
The Pro packages should still be listed as such (i.e. under their own
section, "Ubuntu Pro security updates", in the package listing) in
case there is at least one upgradable package (as of 'apt list
--upgradable'), whether the machine is attached, in which case the
Ubuntu Pro section is sensitive, or unattached to Ubuntu Pro, in which
case it is insensitive.
