Comment:

 @venezia566

 After investigation, this issue appears related to server-side execution
 or request timeout limits rather than a WordPress 6.9 core regression.

 Plugin updates trigger longer synchronous requests in 6.9, which may
 exceed low PHP / web server timeout limits.

 The issue is resolved by increasing max_execution_time, web server
 timeouts, or disabling ModSecurity rules blocking /wp-admin/update.php and
 REST requests.

 Updates via WP-CLI complete successfully, confirming this is environment-
 specific.
