No matter what, it is an optical glitch. It appears in the image from the Right camera, but not in the image from the Left camera. It could be a group of dead pixels. But it is not real, or the Left camera would see it, too.
Cosmic rays hitting computers and causing glitches happens all the time. What happens is a single bit in RAM will flip from a 1 to 0 or a 0 to 1. Most all computers have error correcting hardware and software, and computers outside Earth's magnetosphere have even more error correcting built into them.
It very well could be the automated helicopter drone named Ingenuity that was traveled to Mars with Perseverance. It has been flying a ways ahead scoping out the path for the rover and testing drone flight in a different atmosphere.
if you zoom in it has an irregular shape that matches a bird flying toward the camera. Does not at all look like a missing pixel.

yeah unless they forgot to photoshop one...
Yea especially since its core is dead and thus the planet lacks a magnetic field.
