By default if nothing is given in url params, so it is considered as str type, so define it as int:

path('update/<int:pk>/',views.TaskUpdateView.as_view(),name='cbvupdate')

It will be better if you give action="{% url 'cbvupdate' %}" in form tag of HTML although not necessary as Django always takes current page route.

Note: Always add / at the end of every route.
