I'm rather confused regarding the following sentence:
Labels are confirmed.
are confirmed represent a passive-voice or 'confirmed' is just an adjective, describing the labels?

It's passive voice if adding by X after confirmed would make sense.
A speaker/writer may not add the by X for a few reasons:
the speaker/writer has already said who/what X is and doesn't want to be overly repetitive
the speaker/writer doesn't know who X is at all.
Otherwise confirmed would just describe the state of the labels.
In your example there isn't enough context to know 100% for sure, but heuristically it's common to want to know whether or not something is confirmed, so it's most likely being used as an adjective.
