WD40 is not meant for use in locks. While it may have a temporary
improvement, over time it will serve as a dust and dirt magnet;
returning you to the problem you now have.
Micro-powdered graphite is the accepted lubricant for lock tumblers.
Usually comes in a squeezable plastic tube to squirt the powder into
the lock; not really an option in this case with the key blocking
access..
I do think I have seen it in an aerosol package, probably using a
propellant that will leave no residue? That might work its way past
the stuck key.
