Are you using the latest Ventoy release, 1.1.05? Mageia is on their supported ISO list.

It should work. You might post in their forum: https://forums.ventoy.net/

Did you check the ventoy documentation for secure boot? https://www.ventoy.net/en/doc_secure.html
Easiest way would be to turn secure boot off.
