cannot download due to corporate man-in-the-middle

I manage multiple Linux servers located in a government agency. The agency does packet inspection at the firewall, which means intercepting outgoing connections and interposing their ssl certificate into the connection. In most cases, this does not cause a problem. However, if the local application uses an embedded host cert, the connection will fail with a cert mismatch. This appears to be the case for MATLAB applications. The MATLAB installer cannot download the full application but I can work around this by downloading the ISO. However, I cannot install certain add-ons because the downloads fail. In particular, I am now trying to install the cellpose add-on.

The mathworks log file contains multiple lines like

(Apr 23, 2025 10:04:30) HTTP request failed, retry # 1
(Apr 23, 2025 10:04:30) SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK. . (CURLcode=60)

Is there a way to have the MATLAB applications to either bypass the certificate check or to accept the agency root certificate?
