I didn't request fwupdmgr update --verbose, I requested fwupdtool update
--verbose.  There was a reason I requested that difference.

Anyway though; the problem is very clear now from your output from
fwupdgmr as well.

Blocked executable in the ESP, ensure grub and shim are up to date:
/boot/efi/efi.factory/boot/bootx64.efi Authenticode checksum
[2ea4cb6a1f1eb1d3dce82d54fde26ded243ba3e18de7c6d211902a594fe56788] is
present in dbx

What is going on is that the ESP contains another bootloader that is
used for the recovery partition, which if secureboot DBX update was
pushed down would no longer be able to execute.  This other bootloader
needs to be updated before the DBX update will be accepted.

  partition

  The above contains all the info -- Ubuntu needs to pick up the fwupd upstream fix
  for doing dbx database updates since they now fail with Ubuntu 20.04 and its current fwupd 
  release.  Please fix this!
