 This very clearly is a permissions issue (the user the webserver is
 running as does not have write permissions to the file `wp-admin/includes
 /update-core.php`), and it's using `class-wp-filesystem-direct.php` so
 it's not even FTP related.  At this point, @marceltencaat's issue is not a
 bug, but a support issue and is probably best handled in the
 [https://wordpress.org/support/ support forums].
