Problem/Motivation

After Drupal has updated CKEditor over in #3523018: Update CKEditor 5 to 45.2.0 an error appears when trying to click on an embedded content widget inside the editor. Following error message is being thrown in console:

Uncaught CKEditorError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'pencil')

The problem is that icon: e.icons.pencil inside the JavaScript is invalid and the icon is not available.

Steps to reproduce

Update to latest Drupal version and try to edit an embedded content, also no pencil icon is shown:

Proposed resolution

We need to install @ckeditor/ckeditor5-icons package and import icon like import { IconPencil } from '@ckeditor/ckeditor5-icons'; then.

After doing this it looks like this again:
