iOS 26.1 Beta 4 MDM Camera Restriction Bypassed by Third-Party Apps

In iOS 26.1 beta 4, under MDM restrictions that disable the camera via a configuration profile, the Camera and FaceTime apps are hidden as expected. However, other third-party apps can still access and use the camera function normally. This is unreasonable.

On iOS 26.1 beta, when the MDM command is issued to the phone, the camera disappears but isSourceTypeAvailable: UIImagePickerControlSourceTypeCamera keeps returning true. This issue will not occur on 26.0.1 On iOS 26.1 beta, when the MDM command is issued to the phone, the camera disappears but isSourceTypeAvailable: UIImagePickerControlSourceTypeCamera keeps returning true, which should return false. This issue will not occur on 26.0.1
