There is an unofficial build that fixes the problem. You can download it at: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B2fTesDcrHzVRGVFWEdILWpuaEE?usp=sharing

The build was created by Bob Davenport. See https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=87714 for more details.

———————– original answer ———————–

It is a known MySQL bug: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=83658 caused by GateKeeper Path Randomisation introduced in MacOS Sierra. See https://weblog.rogueamoeba.com/2016/06/29/sierra-and-gatekeeper-path-randomization/.

A possible workaround is to remove the Quarantine ACL:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/MySQLWorkbench.app"
