Logitech caused its mice to freak out by not renewing a certificate
"If you're among the macOS users experiencing some weird issues with your Logitech mouse, then good news: Logitech has now released a fix. This comes after multiple Reddit users reported yesterday that Logi Options Plus - the app required to manage and configure the controls on Logitech accessories - had stopped working, preventing them from using customized scrolling features, button actions, and gestures."
"One Reddit user said that the scroll directions and extra buttons on their Logitech mouse "were not working as I intended," and that the Logi Options Plus app became stuck in a boot loop upon opening it to identify the cause. Logitech has since acknowledged the situation and said that its G Hub app - a similar management software for gaming devices under the Logitech G brand - was also affected."
"According to Logitech's support page, the problem was caused by "an expired certificate" required for the apps to run. A patch has now been released to fix the issue, which needs to be manually installed "because the certificate also affected the in‑app updater.""
Logitech released a patch for macOS that fixes Logi Options Plus and G Hub failures caused by an expired Developer ID certificate. Multiple Reddit users reported Logi Options Plus stopped working, preventing customized scrolling, button actions, and gestures, with some experiencing boot loops. Windows users were unaffected because macOS enforces valid Developer ID certificates. The patch must be manually installed because the expired certificate disabled the in-app updater. Device settings, customizations, and profiles remain intact after installation. The fix covers macOS 26 Tahoe, macOS 15 Sequoia, macOS 14 Sonoma, and macOS 13 Ventura, with older versions to be addressed later. Logitech apologized for the mistake.
