I just had the same problem too. same iphone model and iOS18


I had to disable and re-enable QR code scanning by going to Settings > Camera > Scan QR Codes.

I tried scanning the code again, it initially took a few seconds longer than normal to detect but each subsequent scan of other codes seems to be back to normal function.


I hope this was the only problem.
