iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 18
See here:
The probability that a random person in the population could look at your iPhone or iPad Pro and unlock it using Face ID is less than 1 in 1,000,000 with a single enrolled appearance whether or not you're wearing a mask. As an additional protection, Face ID allows only five unsuccessful match attempts before a passcode is required. The statistical probability is higher — and further increased if using Face ID with a mask — for twins and siblings that look like you, and among children under the age of 13, because their distinct facial features might not have fully developed. If you're concerned about this, we recommend using a passcode to authenticate. You can also use Face ID without enabling Face ID with a mask.

Face ID can sometimes unlock for close family members because of similar facial features especially parents and siblings. It’s rare but possible. To increase security:
1. Go to Settings > Face ID & Passcode,
2. Reset Face ID,
3. Set it up again in good lighting, and
4. Turn off “Require Attention for Face ID” for better accuracy (or leave it on for more strict matching).
For maximum security, use a strong passcode along with Face ID.

This is weird, but apple warns for this that people with a very strong resemblance, although very rare, can use eachothers Face ID
Why is my iPhone Face ID unlocking when my mom looks at it?
