Just ran into this, I found that the following fixes it:

xcrun codesign --sign - "[YOUR_PATH_TO_DYLIB_HERE]"

In my case the error was like so:

ImportError: dlopen(/Users/USER/dev/cr-likes/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/regex/_regex.cpython-39-darwin.so, 2): no suitable image found.  Did find:
    /Users/USER/dev/cr-likes/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/regex/_regex.cpython-39-darwin.so: code signature in (/Users/USER/dev/cr-likes/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/regex/_regex.cpython-39-darwin.so) not valid for use in process using Library Validation: Trying to load an unsigned library

By running xcrun on the shared object, in this case /Users/USER/dev/cr-likes/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/regex/_regex.cpython-39-darwin.so the error is now gone.
