You can install Maxima with MacPorts.
MacPorts is a system for compiling, installing, and managing open source
software on macOS.

"MacPorts-Maxima-5.46.0+b.dmg" is a compressed disc image file. 
It contains a new Maxima port-file and a note which explains how to install 
Maxima-5.46.0, TeXmacs-2.1.1, VTK-8.0.1, and wxMaxima-22.04.0.
The port-file is a script written in Tcl/Tk. It describes how to build 
software and dependencies. So MacPorts interprets it to install software.
This way is free from Apple's quarantine.

Please do the following steps:

(1) download the "MacPorts-Maxima-5.46.0+b.dmg" file into the 
    "${HOME}/Downloads" directory.

(2) open "Terminal.app" in the "/Applications/Utilities" directory 
    and enter the next command in order to remove the "quarantine" 
    attribute of the "MacPorts-Maxima-5.46.0+b.dmg" file:

    ls -lt@ ${HOME}/Downloads/MacPorts-Maxima-5.46.0+b.dmg

    xattr -d com.apple.quarantine ${HOME}/Downloads/MacPorts-Maxima-5.46.0+b.dmg

(3) open the "MacPorts-Maxima-5.46.0+b.dmg" file
    and follow the "ReadMe for Intel Mac.rtf" or "ReadMe for M1 Mac.rtf" file 
    in the disc image.
    "ReadMe*.rtf" also explains how to use imaxima, TeXmacs, and VTK.
