That looks like infill showing through. You have a few options. One is to make the walls thicker - it looks like you only have one pass on the wall so maybe make 2 or 3 passes. Or maybe you already have 2 passes. So set:
1) Wall thickness 2 or 3X line width
But probably the easier thing to do is just this:
2) check the box on "outer before inner walls"
Note that cura claims this can reduce quality on overhangs. For some reason I don't get these lines without having to do #2 above. Or maybe I get them but they are too difficult for me to see. Note that shiny black filament shows imprefections more than any other type of filament but only if you hold it just right so the light reflects just so. As you did here. If you were to (for example) paint this with a flat matte color you wouldn't be able to see these lines.
Thanks, I will try #2 and see what happens. The lines are quite pronounced, so painting would not hide them. I would guess that they are around 1mm high.

Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.
S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
(Sorry, was out of office when this released)
This update is for...
All UltiMaker S series
New features
Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
