This appears to indicate that your system has dkms modules installed, and therefore must have secureboot administratively disabled in order to ensure your system remains bootable, but because this was a non-interactive upgrade, shim-signed was unable to prompt you about this.
It also appears that the signed kernel package is missing from your system, which would also prevent secureboot from working.
I recommend that you install the linux-signed- image-generic package on your system.
Do you know if you have dkms modules installed on your system? (/var/lib/dkms)
