Bought a lock for a cabinet but it doesn’t quite fit in the door. If I clear just a little bit of material from the wooden door, it’ll fit.

What tool do I need to do this?

It looks like the hole is too narrow. That's easy to fix with a Forstner bit and a guide block made of scrap wood.

It also looks like the guide pins are in a different location than the original. That is harder. You can easily drill new holes, but at that point you'll be seriously waking the door. Fill the old holes with epoxy.
