This command will update them:

sudo sed -i -re 's/([a-z]{2}.)?archive.ubuntu.com|security.ubuntu.com/old-releases.ubuntu.com/g' /etc/apt/sources.list

Ubuntu 22.10 was an interim release and only officially is supported for 9 months. Only the LTS releases are supported long term. With that we strive to support and build Officially Supported releases. With this many OS's and builds for multiple providers and cpu architectures we don't have the resources to support them for longer terms.

You are free to use the templates and build your own boxes as well.
