Catalina 10.15.7 thinks HP printer software is malware

Since the auto update to Catalina 10.15.7 my mac now thinks HP printer software is malware. I thought that maybe the old printer software was out of date so I downloaded the latest direct from HP and it is still considered to be Malware. This is ridiculous. And I can't get rid of the stupid malware report popups.

How do I stop this?

It is not malware, it is the result of an error by HP that requested Apple to revoke the certificates on a bunch of drivers. Uninstall those printers and install again and all will return to normal.
