First step: you should have a list of CVE identifiers for the
vulnerabilities that your tooling believes exist. Look these up in
Ubuntu's CVE database to see what the security team believes is the
current state of those.

You can find the CVE database at
https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/

Then, if you still have concerns, please post the specific CVEs that
bother you and explain these concerns in the context of what our CVE
database says our position is about them.

If you are having difficulty in actually updating your system's
packages, then this list is probably the wrong place for a discussion
about that unless you have reason to think that there's a bug or other
problem in Ubuntu in general, as opposed to just your system.

Hope that helps,

Robie
