It's gpk-update-viewer, from the gnome-packagekit module. FYI:
gnome-packagekit is in maintenance mode (expect bugfixes only) and all
new work is being done on gnome-software, which is much nicer.

Unfortunately I don't think it's possible to limit the time it checks
for updates. Since human intervention is required to download and
install the updates, I'm not really sure the benefit of running the
check overnight anyway? (If it could install updates automatically, I
would understand why you'd want to do it overnight.)
