Disable Camera fully in iPhone XS

Hello,


I'm having a damaged iPhone with a clear damage on the camera. This causes the phone to heat up and ultimately die due to overheating. I need some time before i can have the phone repaired, if possible at all, but meanwhile the phone needs to be used for work.

Can i use the OS to totally disable the camera functionality in the phone?

If this is a reserved knowledge, this info can also be sent privately by e-mail.

No, the iPhone does not have a software option for shutting off the camera.
