MySQL Workbench 8.0.28 export issue on MacOS 12.3

Job ID: 33392671

Budget: $10 – $30 AUD

Up until recently I was using MySQL Workbench 8.0.20 without any issues till I upgraded my MacOS to 12.3 after which the Workbench software itself stopped working. I then upgraded my Workbench version to 8.0.28 (latest version at the time of writing).

But after updating to the new version, I initially had issues connecting to my remote databases. I was getting the following error -

Got error: 2026: SSL connection error: error:1425F102:SSL routines:ssl_choose_client_version:unsupported protocol when trying to connect

But I was able to solve that one by setting the 'Use SSL' option under the SSL tab for the connection to 'No'.

The next issue though is now I am not able to perform exports on the server using mysqldump. The Workbench software is trying to run the following command -

Running: /Applications/MySQLWorkbench.app/Contents/MacOS/mysqldump --defaults-file="/var/folders/fd/jt76prtj4z35dqd6y1y1_jcw0000gn/T/tmppuwxrtig/extraparams.cnf" --host=host.db.com --port=3306 --default-character-set=utf8 --user=logicspice --protocol=tcp --single-transaction=TRUE --column-statistics=0 --skip-triggers "database"

after which I'm getting a similar issue -

mysqldump: Got error: 2026: SSL connection error: error:1425F102:SSL routines:ssl_choose_client_version:unsupported protocol when trying to connect

Is there an update I can do to a certain configuration file for either mysqldump or MySQL Workbench that will disable the use of SSL when trying to use mysqldump?

Your assistance would be much appreciated as this issue is causing delays in my development work. Thanks!
