Description:
I tried to install mysql shell. I downloaded mysql-shell-8.0.25-macos11-x86-64bit.dmg and tried to open it.
I got the message "mysql-shell-8.0.25-macos11x86-64bit.pkg" can't be opened because Apple cannot check  it for malicious software. This software needs to be updated. Contact developer for more information.

How to repeat:
Download the dmg and doubleclick
