Since Bullseye the syntax for updates and security has changed. Additonally, debug is nowadays a separate source. The following new defaults would thus be desirable:

Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern {
	"origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename},label=Debian";
	"origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename},label=Debian-Security";
	"origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename}-debug,label=Debian debug";
	"origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename}-security,label=Debian-Security";
	"origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename}-updates,label=Debian";
};

Actually, seeing how the security source already is identified by
codenane nowadays, we can probably drop the label entirely.  The
resulting default would be:

Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern {
        "origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename}";
        "origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename}-debug";
        "origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename}-security";
        "origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename}-updates";
};
