The file /etc/apt/source.list should look something like this, maybe

Make sure any CD lines are commented and that you have an uncommented
line showing
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm main non-free contrib
I used xedit as root to comment out the deb cdrom line, so sources.list now
looks like your example. Package installation now works correctly with
synaptic.
