Device is not authorized for usage [SOLVED]

I'm using Logitech M171 wireless mouse. It worked normally before the update.
Here's my uname output:

$ uname -a
Linux archlinux 4.19.8.a-1-hardened #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Dec 9 13:12:56 CET 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux

After the update mouse movement and button presses don't work any more.
I can still use my touchpad.

The Unifying Receiver device shows up in lsusb:

$ lsusb

Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Bus 002 Device 005: ID 8087:07dc Intel Corp.

The mouse itself doesn't appear in xinput though

$ xinput

Re: Device is not authorized for usage [SOLVED]

Does it work with the standard kernel?

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan

Re: Device is not authorized for usage [SOLVED]

Alright, I realized my mistake.

Apparently USBGuard was blocking my device.
I allowed the dongle and now it works like before.
