Hijack top comment. Check your battery settings and see if there is a gap during the night. Yesterday a lot of iPhones were turned off for a few hours during the night. In my case, the phone turned on again 1 minute before the alarm

So my iPhone 15 Pro Max running iOS 17.0.3 restarted automatically last night (October 10 around 01:00 AM CET). The same thing happened to three of my friends who have the same iPhone and the same iOS, and to another person who has an iPhone 13 Mini, also on the same iOS.

You can find out if your iPhone‌ has turned off for the night by opening the Settings app, going to Battery, and checking the charging status for the past 24 hours. If there is a gap, the ‌iPhone‌ will turn off for a period of time.
