how to stop another function calling on window.open overrided function

I have a function which I called whenever a new tab opens from window.open as I have overrode that function. Also,

I have attached a function on document.onclick event I need that function to be a pause or stop whenever window.open function runs.

I know the event.stopPropagation(); is used for achieving this but in the function, it's not working as event argument couldn't pass.

window.open = function(open) {
    return function(url) {
        console.log("url", url);
        
        // need to works here event.stopPropagation();
        return open.call(window, url);
    };
}(window.open);

document.onclick = clickListener;
function clickListener() {
  console.log("click");
};
function openLink(){
window.open('https://www.google.com')
}
<button onclick="openLink()">open link</button>

var staticVar = false;
window.open = function(open) {
    return function(url) {
        console.log("url", url);
        staticVar = true;
        // need to works here event.stopPropagation();
        return open.call(window, url);
    };
}(window.open);

document.onclick = clickListener;
function clickListener() {
	if(!staticVar) {
		console.log("click")
	}
	staticVar = false;
};
function openLink() {
    window.open('https://www.google.com');
}
<button onclick="openLink()">open link</button>

Event object will be available on window. You can try following:

    window.open = (function(open) {
    return function(url) {
        window.event.stopPropagation();
        console.log("url", url);

        // need to works here event.stopPropagation();
        return open.call(window, url);
    };
   })(window.open);
