[wp-testers] "Are you sure you want to do this?" without button

[Otto]

Normally, that action is a POST (instead of a GET) and you're also
sending a nonce along with the request. The "are you sure" message is
the result of not sending the nonce. That would normally pop up (if no
nonce was send), not be a separate page.

In other words, you should not point a browser to that URL directly.
Go to wp-admin/update-core.php and then click the upgrade button
instead.
