You have been subscribed to a public bug:

When performing a distribution upgrade, update-manager initially
presents a usable (though badly-sized) window. Clicking the "Details"
button though resizes that window (by, I'm guessing, the vertical space
needed for the new information) and pushes the window's buttons off the
bottom of the screen.

The window cannot be moved up, because the titlebar blocks that; and it
can't be resized vertically either. The end result is that there is no
way to see the buttons, no way for mouse users to click them, and no way
for the user to either continue or abort the upgrade other than by
guessing at which button MIGHT be highlighted if they TAB around
blindly.

This bug is present in the updaters used for (at least) both 19.04 and
19.10.
