"Kernel Panic" after updates, Zorin 18 with Linux 6.17.0-14 not loading

I think that the update brought the 6.17 kernel - which means the the 6.14 had to be working fine.

From your grub menu, select the last option for 6.14.0-37 (recovery mode)
Enter the recovery menu - arrow key down to Enable Networking
With networking enabled, back up to the recovery menu and arrow key to the bottom Drop to Root Prompt

In the prompt run

apt --fix-broken install

dpkg --configure -a

Please relay the results, here
