Call the manufacturer – if it’s commercially produced, there’s usually a number on the jar somewhere. I’ve done that when I bought cereal that had a badly sealed bag inside and got sent coupons worth more than the cost of the item for taking the trouble to report it.
Normally I wouldn’t bother on something that is pretty cheap, but if one failed to seal, they really need to sample the batch and see if a recall is necessary. Botulism is no joke.
That almost seems worse because it implies the contamination happened in the canning facility and not as the result of improper shipping/handling. I hope you report it to the manufacturer.

It was properly sealed, the little button was down, and it made a pop sound when I opened it.

I plan to.
