This bug was fixed in the package unattended-upgrades - 1.10ubuntu5.1
---------------
unattended-upgrades (1.10ubuntu5.1) disco; urgency=medium
* Skip trying to upgrade held packages in call_adjusted() (LP: #1824804)
* Follow all kinds of transitive dependencies when adjusting dependencies
(LP: #1824804)
* Detect unchanged moved conffiles.
When a package moves a conffile properly without any change no conffile
prompt needs to be shown thus the package can be upgraded unattended even
when the conffile is changed locally. (LP: #1823872)
* Don't crash collecting transitive dependencies when package has no candidate
(LP: #1825886)
* Use mark_install_adjusted() in rewind_cache()
The original cache had packages marked with adjustments thus rewinding
should also do adjustments to reach the same state.
Also not using mark_install_adjusted() crashes when apt raises error on
held packages. (LP: #1826157)
- test_rewind: Update test to check if adjusted rewinding took place

Bug description:
[Impact]
* Unattended-upgrades may crash when a package in apt's cache does not have
a candidate and it is visited when finding packages to adjust.
* The crash occurs when apt.Package.candidate is None and the fix is
checking if .candidate is truthy and it that case is safe to reference the
.dependencies attribute.
[Test Case]
* Watch the error not happening anymore.
[Regression Potential]
* The fix is very small and is not likely to cause any regression.
