I see lsb_release is mentioned below.

Unfortunately, it may not work on all Debian based systems; for example, on a stock Ubuntu 20.04.2, it returns the following:

$ lsb_release

No LSB modules are available.

Is there any other way for me to find out which version of Debian my current Ubuntu installation is based on?

I suppose you could search for /etc/debian_version, even display it to get your answer.

    cat /etc/debian_version
