You can handle this bug quite easily.
Use CommunityAdvancedDisplayFilter, just like this screenshot.
After filtering, you select all of them and "Change Segment Status > Not Translated".
a little bit more convenient style is to use AutoHotkey programming language.
To fix a Bug [Confirm ALL Empty Segments Error]

You could make it as a form of Trados Studio PlugIn which implement the same logic as AutoHotkey, then way better.
Of course, the best solution is not happen this bug again with the improvement of Trados Studio.
The root cause is not from User side but from Trados itself, because the other CAT tool does not make this kind of vexing situation ever.
There is a shortcut for "Confirm all":
So before you do anything else check if there is NOTHING assigned, what could (and would) be pressed accidentally. In this very case I strongly suppose the reason were subsequently but unintentionally pressed shortcuts, what led to confirming all segments. There is no bug in the software responsible for this. It happens to all of us every now and then, but this is so rare, that I never would blame the software. In my opinion the problem here is sitting in front of the computer.

Indeed there is, but I believe this is related to Alignments, not confirming segments in the Editor.

Might be, but after having deactivated this in my user profile this "accident" described here never happened to me again. This is why I suppose there is no bug in the software, but some subsequently pressed shortcuts lead unintentionally to confirming all segments. Unconfirming these should however be very easy either via "undone" or via filtering with ^$ in target. You can also "crash" Studio with task manager (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC) and use the auto saved document after restart, if all other means will not help. What you don't need in such situation is panicking. Because even if nothing helps, all translations are still stored in the TM, so you can even restart from scratch.
