Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for python-click.

CVE-2026-7246[0]:
| Pallets Click, versions 8.3.2 and below, contain a command injection
| vulnerability in the click.edit() function, allowing attackers to
| pass arbitrary OS commands from an unprivileged account.

Note that the 'intoduced by' commit in the advisory does not seem
correct, it is the one adding support for multiple files but the issue
would be prepsent before 8.2.0 as well.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
