A new update for this fix is available here.
About the fix:

- Android versions: From Android 7 to 13.
- Requirements: Magisk.
- Limitations: The front camera resolution is reduced to 4MP.
- Suggestion: Perform a TWRP backup before applying the fix in case something goes wrong.

Downloads:
OnePlus 5 & 5T:

- TWRP zip: OnePlus5&5T-DotFix-TWRP-v6.3.zip (see what you can do with the zip)
Instructions:
Magisk:

- Reboot.
To remove:
- Open Magisk Manager.
- Delete the module.
- Reboot.
TWRP/recovery:
To install:
- Download the zip flash it via TWRP.
- Select the correct device using your volume keys.
- Reboot.
- Repeat these steps every time you update your ROM.
To remove:
There are two options:
- Dirty flash your ROM.
Or:
- Flash the zip again and select the option to remove the fix.
TWRP options:
When flashing, use your volume keys to select what you want to do (install/remove) and which device you have (5/5T). If your volume keys don't work, selections can also be specified in the zip name (and you won't be asked to make selections after flashing the zip):
- If the zip name contains "install", "Install", or "INSTALL" - DotFix will be installed
- If the zip name contains "remove", "Remove", or "REMOVE" - DotFix will be installed
- If the zip name contains "cheeseburger", "Cheeseburger", or "CHEESEBURGER" - Device will be selected as OnePlus 5
- If the zip name contains "dumpling", "Dumpling", or "DUMPLING" - Device will be selected as OnePlus 5T
For example, if the zip is named "xyz-install-cheeseburger.zip", the installer will automatically install DotFix for OnePlus 5. Similarly, if the zip is named "xyz-remove-dumpling.zip", the installer will automatically restore the stock camera libraries for OnePlus 5T.
