Camera does not work after 17.2.1 update

It put the same error on my phone also and I had no repairs to my iPhone 14 Pro Max. They told me it was the hardware of my camera also. The last update did something to my camera.

iOS updates generally aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. Camera issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.

This seems purely coincidental so please check the Setting on your device.

An additional message might appear that says "Apple has updated the device information for this iPhone." This means that Apple has updated the device information maintained for this iPhone for service needs, safety analysis, and to improve future products. 

If your iPhone's parts have been previously replaced, repaired, or serviced by an unauthorized service provider, it's worth noting that Apple may decline to provide service for your device.
