LGTM — focused BoringSSL/OpenSSL compat fix for X509Certificate.ca, with tests covering v1, v3 CA:TRUE, and v3 CA:FALSE.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR changes a single function body, X509View::isCA() in src/jsc/bindings/ncrypto.cpp, and adds three regression tests in test/js/node/crypto/x509-subclass.test.ts. The old implementation compared X509_check_ca() == 1, which is correct on OpenSSL (Node) but not on BoringSSL (Bun): BoringSSL returns 1 for X.509 v1 certificates with no extensions, whereas OpenSSL returns a non-1 value, so Bun was reporting .ca === true for v1 certs where Node reports false. The fix reads X509_get_extension_flags() and requires both EXFLAG_BCONS (basicConstraints present) and EXFLAG_CA (CA:TRUE), then requires X509_get_key_usage() to include X509v3_KU_KEY_CERT_SIGN — which is exactly the condition under which OpenSSL's check_ca() returns 1. BoringSSL's X509_get_key_usage() returns UINT32_MAX when no keyUsage extension is present, so the absent-keyUsage case correctly passes. All three callers (the .ca getter, toLegacyObject(), and toJSON()) route through this one function.
Security risks
None. This is a read-only informational getter on X509Certificate; it does not participate in TLS chain verification, trust decisions, or any auth path. The behavioral change is strictly more conservative — certs that previously (incorrectly) reported ca: true now report ca: false to match Node. No new inputs are parsed and no memory management changes.
Level of scrutiny
Low–medium. The diff is ~15 lines of well-commented C++ replacing a one-liner, plus ~65 lines of tests with embedded PEM fixtures. The logic is a straightforward bit-flag check against documented public BoringSSL APIs, and the PR description spells out the OpenSSL-vs-BoringSSL divergence precisely. The added tests pin both the regression case (v1 → false) and the positive case (v3 CA:TRUE → true), so the fix can't silently break real CA certs.
Other factors
No CODEOWNERS cover these paths. There are no prior human review comments to address, and the bug-hunting pass found nothing. The change follows the same pattern as the neighboring isIssuedBy() / checkPrivateKey() helpers and keeps ClearErrorOnReturn in place.

I didn't find any issues — the extension-flag check correctly mirrors OpenSSL's check_ca() == 1 semantics and isCA() only feeds the informational .ca getter — but since this is a behavior change in node:crypto X509 handling, it's worth a quick human look.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR changes a single function, X509View::isCA() in src/jsc/bindings/ncrypto.cpp, replacing X509_check_ca(cert) == 1 with an explicit check of X509_get_extension_flags() (requiring both EXFLAG_BCONS and EXFLAG_CA) plus X509_get_key_usage() & X509v3_KU_KEY_CERT_SIGN. It adds three regression tests in test/js/node/crypto/x509-subclass.test.ts covering a v1 cert (no extensions), a v3 cert with CA:TRUE, and a v3 cert with CA:FALSE.
I confirmed isCA() is only consumed by the JS-facing X509Certificate.ca getter (JSX509CertificatePrototype.cpp:473) and computeIsCA() for toLegacyObject()/toJSON() (JSX509Certificate.cpp:604,887,1056) — it is not used in any TLS chain-verification or trust-decision path.
Security risks
The change is in node:crypto certificate-inspection code, so it's security-adjacent by location. Functionally, though, it makes the .ca getter stricter (v1 certs without basicConstraints now report false instead of true) and aligns it with Node/OpenSSL semantics, so the direction of the change is risk-reducing rather than risk-introducing. The new logic is a faithful re-expression of OpenSSL's internal check_ca() returning 1: keyUsage (if present) must allow cert signing, and basicConstraints must be present with CA:TRUE. X509_get_key_usage() returning UINT32_MAX when no keyUsage extension exists means the absent-keyUsage case still passes, matching OpenSSL.
Level of scrutiny
Moderate. The diff is tiny (~10 effective lines), well-commented, and backed by tests that pin both the positive (CA:TRUE → true) and negative cases. But it lives in crypto bindings and changes a documented Node API's return value, so per my guidelines I'm deferring rather than auto-approving.
Other factors
- No CODEOWNERS entry covers these paths.
- The only CI failure is
test/cli/install/bunx.test.ts, which is unrelated to crypto/X509 and appears to be a pre-existing flake (the head commit is just a CI retrigger). - No prior human reviews or outstanding comments to address.
|
CI is green on everything this PR touches. The only failing test is `test/cli/install/bunx.test.ts` → "should handle package that requires node 24" (spawned bunx exits 3), on the `debian-13-x64-asan` lane. That test exists unchanged on `main`, downloads a real npm package at runtime, and failed identically on both the original build and the retrigger — it is pre-existing/environmental and unrelated to this change. This diff is 16 lines of platform-agnostic C++ in `X509View::isCA()` plus three crypto tests in `x509-subclass.test.ts`; that test file passes locally and appears in no failure annotation. Ready for a maintainer to merge. |

LGTM — the added keyUsage boundary tests since the last pass round out the coverage nicely.
Checked that the new isCA() body is an exact transcription of OpenSSL's check_ca() return-1 branch (!ku_reject(KU_KEY_CERT_SIGN) && EXFLAG_BCONS && EXFLAG_CA), so it reproduces Node's X509_check_ca(...) == 1 result on BoringSSL. Confirmed X509_get_key_usage() returns all-bits-set when the extension is absent on both backends, so the no-keyUsage CA case stays true. .ca is a metadata getter — Bun's TLS chain validation runs inside BoringSSL and does not consult this function, so the change is compat-only and in the stricter direction.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
The PR rewrites X509View::isCA() in src/jsc/bindings/ncrypto.cpp (7 lines) to stop relying on X509_check_ca(...) == 1, whose return-value semantics differ between OpenSSL (Node) and BoringSSL (Bun) for X.509 v1 certificates lacking basicConstraints. The replacement reads X509_get_extension_flags() and X509_get_key_usage() directly, requiring EXFLAG_BCONS | EXFLAG_CA plus the keyCertSign bit. Tests in test/js/node/crypto/x509-subclass.test.ts now cover five embedded certificates spanning v1/no-extensions, v3 CA:TRUE, v3 CA:FALSE, and both keyUsage boundary cases (absent, and present-without-keyCertSign), each asserting both .ca and .toLegacyObject().ca.
Security risks
.ca is an informational, read-only property on X509Certificate used by application code to inspect certificate metadata; Bun's TLS handshake and chain validation are performed inside BoringSSL and do not route through this function. The change moves in the fail-closed direction — fewer certificates report ca === true than before — and now matches Node exactly. I see no path by which this weakens a security check inside Bun itself.
Level of scrutiny
Medium. This is node:crypto, so per-line verification against the reference implementation was warranted. I traced the new predicate against OpenSSL's crypto/x509/v3_purp.c::check_ca(): the return-1 branch there is precisely !ku_reject(x, KU_KEY_CERT_SIGN) followed by (ex_flags & EXFLAG_BCONS) && (ex_flags & EXFLAG_CA). X509_get_key_usage() is documented to return UINT32_MAX when the keyUsage extension is absent on both OpenSSL and BoringSSL, so & X509v3_KU_KEY_CERT_SIGN reproduces !ku_reject exactly. The const_cast matches every neighboring X509View method and is required because these accessors lazily populate the cached extension flags.
Other factors
This is my third pass on the PR. Since the earlier reviews the implementation is unchanged; the two new commits added the keyUsage-absent and keyUsage-without-keyCertSign test cases and trimmed a comment. All bot inline threads were followed by commits that plausibly address them (test additions and comment edits). No CODEOWNERS entry covers src/jsc/bindings/ncrypto.cpp. The test file is the correct home (existing module test, not a new file), assertions are exact .toBe(...) on both accessor surfaces, and the v1 case demonstrably fails on the old implementation.

Stale PR review: keep open. The bug still reproduces: for the v1 fixture in this PR, Node v26.3.0 reports |
…Constraints
X509View::isCA() compared X509_check_ca() == 1, ported from Node. Node
uses OpenSSL, where X509_check_ca() returns 2 for an X.509 v1 certificate
(historical compat), so the == 1 check yields false. Bun uses BoringSSL,
whose X509_check_ca() returns 1 for v1 certificates ('If x509 is an X509v1
certificate ... it is considered eligible'), so the same check incorrectly
reported a v1 cert with no basicConstraints as a CA.
Check the extension flags directly (basicConstraints present with the CA
bit set, and keyUsage -- if present -- allowing certificate signing) so
.ca, toLegacyObject().ca match Node on both TLS backends. A cert is a CA
per RFC 5280 only if basicConstraints says CA:TRUE.
A CA:TRUE certificate with no keyUsage extension is a CA. A CA:TRUE certificate whose keyUsage omits keyCertSign is not. Both match Node.

I reviewed the current revision (including the keyUsage boundary commits) and found no bugs; since this changes a node:crypto X509 binding against BoringSSL semantics that are not readable from this checkout, a human look is still worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
- Traced the new
isCA()against OpenSSL'scheck_ca() == 1(ku_reject + BCONS + CA): theEXFLAG_BCONS|EXFLAG_CAtest plusX509_get_key_usage & KEY_CERT_SIGNreproduces it, and BoringSSL'sX509_get_key_usagereturns 0 on extension-cache failure, so the error case still yields false. - Grepped for sibling sites:
X509_check_cahas no other callers; the.cagetter,toLegacyObject()andtoJSON()all route throughisCA(), and no TLS verification path depends on it. - Test matrix covers v1/no-ext, CA:TRUE, CA:FALSE, CA:TRUE without keyUsage, and CA:TRUE with keyUsage lacking keyCertSign, each asserting both
.caandtoLegacyObject().cawithtoBe.
Extended reasoning...
The diff replaces one line in X509View::isCA() in /home/claude/bun/src/jsc/bindings/ncrypto.cpp with a direct check of X509_get_extension_flags and X509_get_key_usage, and adds a five-certificate test block to /home/claude/bun/test/js/node/crypto/x509-subclass.test.ts. It touches the node:crypto X509Certificate surface but only an informational boolean getter; nothing in Bun's TLS or verification code consumes isCA(). The logic matches OpenSSL/Node's X509_check_ca() == 1 by my reading, and the test matrix is complete, but the vendored BoringSSL source is not present in this checkout so the X509_get_key_usage absent-extension semantics could only be confirmed from memory and the author's gate output, which is why this is a defer rather than an approve. No CODEOWNERS entry covers these paths, and the earlier bot inline threads were self-resolved by the author after the keyUsage commits that appear to address them.

It matches the docs and Node. On `main` such a server refused clients with no certificate but served any unrelated self-signed one, so it was never authentication. **Set `requestCert: true` to require a certificate.** A matrix test pins that `requestCert: true` still refuses no certificate and an untrusted one on 8 kinds of server, TLS 1.2 and 1.3, with `NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED` unset and `0`. - `NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0` no longer relaxes a server. - `Bun.connect` / `Bun.listen` hear of a fatal TLS error after the handshake through `error(socket, err)`. With no `error` handler the socket just closes. - HTTP/3 server names match like TCP: `*.` covers exactly one label, case is ignored, a trailing dot is ignored, the last registration of a name wins. - `requestCert` on node:https is `=== true`, as in Node. - An array where a generated options dictionary is expected throws (`tls: []`, `jest.useFakeTimers([])`). - `key` / `cert` arrays serve every identity. A client that can use both gets ECDSA, where `main` served whichever pair came last. - `ecdhCurve` is forwarded by node:https, `ws` and node-fetch now, so a group BoringSSL lacks (`X448`) throws there as it already does in `tls.createServer`. - A wrapped socket's error is re-emitted on the TLS socket as in Node, so `raw.destroy(err)` with a listener on `raw` only is uncaught, as in Node. - `sql.options.tls` is always an object, never `true`. `RedisClient` sends SNI. - `tls: { secureContext }` alone asks for TLS on `Bun.listen` / `Bun.connect` (it was plain TCP), and a value that is not a `SecureContext` throws. The context is served as it is: the `requestCert` / `rejectUnauthorized` it was created with hold whatever the options next to it say, and `requestCert` in the options over a context that does not ask throws at `listen()`. - `tls.DEFAULT_CIPHERS` reaches every client once assigned (`fetch`, `WebSocket`, `Bun.connect`, `RedisClient`, `Bun.SQL`, `S3Client`, proxy tunnels) and servers again. A list that selects no cipher throws `ERR_SSL_NO_CIPHER_MATCH` at the assignment. `fetch.preconnect()` dials nothing after an assignment. - The warning for an unreadable `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS` is Node's one line, without the `warn:` prefix. - `BUN_CONFIG_WS_CLOSE_TIMEOUT` (default 30 s): how long a `WebSocket` client waits for the server to close the connection after the closing handshake. #### Worth a look in review 1. **#44529**: the kernel-refused remainder of a TLS write moves from the loop's one slot onto the connection (in the existing rare struct), so the write BIO never refuses a sealed record. Nothing is allocated on an unstalled path (200 writes: 0 appends, same `send()` count as `main`), memory with 16 stalled writers is lower than on `main` (276 KB vs 340 KB, which `main` holds inside BoringSSL's buffers), `us_socket_t` stays 80 bytes. It needs a bound on how long a deferred close waits, or a peer that stops reading pins the fd past `destroy()`: `US_SSL_CLOSE_AFTER_SPILL_TIMEOUT` is a fixed 10 s, not re-armed on progress. Separate commits, but the fix that keeps the client certificate off the wire beside a stalled socket builds on them. 2. **The default name check of node:tls also runs inside the handshake**, so a wrong-name server gets no client certificate on TLS 1.2 either. JS still runs it after every successful handshake, so a difference between the two matchers can only refuse. Error objects are byte-identical. 3. **#44441** widens trust by design: a self-issued leaf whose `keyUsage` lacks `keyCertSign` (`dotnet dev-certs`) is its own anchor when the store holds a byte-identical copy. No BoringSSL change. Expired pin, same subject with another key, wrong EKU and a pinned intermediate are tested to fail. 4. **#32235** only adds Ed25519 and ECDSA P-521 to the verify list. A captured ClientHello shows `main`'s list with the two inserted; `rsa_pkcs1_sha1` stays. 5. **A stream that a TLS socket wraps, when that TLS socket closes.** An earlier state of this branch lost data here while CI was green (found by #44709's report): with the peer closing first, 4 of 8 MiB arrived with TLS in TLS, 4 of 32 MiB on the http2 `emit("connection")` path, and a `write()` with no `'error'` listener ended the process. Three Node-parity changes only hold together: destroying the wrapped stream at the close (#38028 + #38122 + #38076, #38154) is safe only if every write has really completed (#43877), which in turn needs Node's handling of the peer's close_notify, which needs half-open sockets that the GC can collect. So: - #43877 + #44394 are reverted and reopened. A write over a stream completes once the stream has taken the ciphertext, as on `main`. - Until the verdict on the peer lets the session through, the application cannot have written over it. There the wrapped stream is destroyed as in Node, with the sessions below it. That keeps the release of the connection after a failed handshake, a rejected certificate and an early `destroy()`. The same for an http2 socket the application never got, and for `resetAndDestroy()`. - After that it is `main`'s teardown: a `net.Socket` only gets the engine's `end()`, closes at its peer's FIN, keeps its own timeout and reports its own errors. Any other stream is destroyed with the TLS socket. The regular suites cannot see any of this (999 files were green on every broken variant), so it was steered by eleven seeded differential fuzzers run on this build, `main`, Node v26.3.0 and the earlier state: close, `end()`, `destroy()`, `destroySoon()`, resets, hung and half-open peers, paused writers, timeouts, two and three sessions deep, over TCP and over Duplexes, before, at and after the handshake, and http2 requests. See "How did you verify". #### Known limits - `fetch` with a `checkServerIdentity` function still sends the client certificate (not the request) to a server the function refuses. On TLS 1.2 any verdict a JS callback gives is too late, as in Node. - `addContext()` / `SNICallback` still do not apply to a server-side socket on the stream engine (`emit("connection", duplex)`, TLS in TLS, unflushed writes, named pipes), as on `main`. - A CA bundled in a pfx extends an explicit `ca` only, for `ws` / node-fetch / `WebSocket`: the native `ca` can only replace the default store, and that store keeps `SSL_CERT_FILE` / `SSL_CERT_DIR`. - P-521 leaves work on TLS 1.3 only. TLS 1.2 needs secp521r1 in every ClientHello (`it.todo`). - Once `tls.DEFAULT_CIPHERS` is assigned, `fetch(url, { protocol: "http3" })` is `HTTP3Unsupported`, as with an explicit `ciphers`. - `addCACert()` by hand does not extend the chains of a context with several identities. - A throwing `ALPNCallback` sends `no_application_protocol` on both engines. Node sends nothing and its client sees `ECONNRESET`. - TLS in TLS, peer FIN while the outer handshake runs: the inner socket gets one `write EPIPE`, where Node gives `ECONNRESET` (`main` gives it no error at all). - `@SECLEVEL` in `ciphers` is dropped by the `ws` / node-fetch shims, which used to ignore `ciphers`. node:tls keeps throwing `ERR_SSL_INVALID_COMMAND`. - Beside a stalled TLS socket only the first record (16 KiB) of the first write leaves with the handshake flight. The rest goes record by record, which is what bounds the memory of stalled writers. - After a fatal error on an established session the socket emits `'error'` and then `'close'`. Node emits `'error'` and leaves the socket open. - A paused reader whose own write the kernel rejects loses what it had not read yet, with an `EPIPE`, as on Node. `main` reports no error there and delivers it. - On `main` too: a `Bun.listen` socket without `allowHalfOpen` that has unsent ciphertext when the client's `shutdown()` arrives loses that ciphertext (32 KiB), and over plain TCP `end()` with the peer still sending is a close over unread input, so a reset. - Differences from both `main` and Node that the differential runs below found and that stay, all with a peer that aborts: `ECONNRESET` instead of a clean `'end'` after the socket's own `'finish'` when the peer destroyed with unread data; under TLS 1.2, a zero-length `write()` followed by `destroy()` in `'secureConnection'` leaves the client without `'secureConnect'` (a plain `destroy()` there matches Node); a TLS 1.2 client that destroys in `'secureConnect'` gets no `'session'`; a `ClientRequest` whose handshake fails with an alert emits `'error'` and `'close'` but no `'finish'` (`writableFinished` is true). - Once `tls.DEFAULT_CIPHERS` is assigned, `fetch.preconnect()` opens nothing: `fetch()` then uses a context of its own, and a socket warmed under the default one would never be picked up. - A TLS `send()` that the kernel refuses outside a `write()` call (the drain of unsent ciphertext) is reported with the close, as `read EPIPE` / `read ECONNRESET`. Node says `write EPIPE`. `main` does not report it at all. - Once the application has a session over a `net.Socket` (TLS in TLS, http2 `emit("connection")`), a peer that never sends its FIN holds that socket after the TLS socket closed, as on `main`. Node destroys it. Two tests of #38154 are `todo` for this. Closing it any earlier (at its `'finish'`, say) makes the kernel drop what it has not sent yet as soon as the peer's close_notify arrives. - Plaintext that was queued on a socket before it was wrapped (STARTTLS with a backlog) is dropped when the TLS socket is destroyed, or its handshake fails, before the session is accepted. Node drops it too, except on `destroySoon()`. `main` sends it. - Over a stream that is no `net.Socket`, `end()` can still cut what that stream has buffered, and there is no backpressure, both as on `main` (#43877). - `tls.secureContext` (the undocumented door node:tls uses) is not read by a Windows named pipe listener, which builds its context from the options. On `upgradeTLS({ isServer: true })` the options next to it are the policy, as with Node's `SetVerifyMode`. - `selectServerName()` rebuilds the name tree per ClientHello for injected sockets of a server with `addContext()` entries: 0.4 µs for 1 entry, 3.7 µs for 10, 41 µs for 100, against 631–1111 µs for a handshake. #### Not included Left open, because they need a decision or are not TLS: #43877 + #44394 (see "Worth a look" 5; #43874 stays open with them), #38548, #38591 (both shrink who is trusted), #41589 (`verify-full` vs `NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0`), #37197, #41706, #43216, #33487, #33545, #36707, #32435, #37255, #28691, #40275, #30314 (features), #38120 (needs the BoringSSL fork, as did #33517, which the stale bot has closed since), #38529 (needs a Windows measurement), #34342, #38232, #43089, #44454, #40451, #42710, #44527, #38088, #38093, #41898. #37896, #42054 and #37013 stay open for the halves not taken. `http.createServer({ key, cert })` keeps serving TLS on purpose. One open question: `tls: {}` (an object that names no TLS option) is plain TCP on `Bun.listen` / `Bun.connect`, here and on `main`. It is the same trap as `tls: []`, but changing it changes a Bun default, so it is left alone. ### How did you verify your code works? - Every new test fails on `main` for the stated reason and passes here, except guards that pin existing behavior, each shown to fail when its clause is removed. `node:*` tests also pass on Node v26.3.0; the few that cannot say which Node version has the behavior. - 212 test files that touch TLS, sockets, http, http2, fetch, WebSocket, SQL, Valkey and workers: 6154 pass, 2 fail. Both are seen on `main` too: `serve.test.ts` "root range port" (the box runs as root), and `worker_threads.test.ts` "terminate(): nothing of the worker's runs after the request", which is flaky there and passed in the run below. - 58 of those files the way the ASAN lane runs them (LeakSanitizer + `BUN_JSC_validateExceptionChecks`): 58 files, 48 of them with leak checking, 4132 pass, 3 fail. All three also fail on `main`: `serve.test.ts` "root range port", `node-net.test.ts` "should not leak when connect({path}) fails synchronously on a reused handle" (times out under this environment), `worker_threads.test.ts` "process.exit() with a shell cp in flight" (a `ShellCpTask` leak). - 647 vendored `test-tls-*`, `test-https-*`, `test-net-*`, `test-http2-*`: the only two failures also fail on `main`. - The SNI matcher was diffed against both old matchers: 3 seeds × 1.23 M lookups × 3 registration flavours, every difference in one of the intended classes, TCP and HTTP/3 identical on every lookup. - The headline rows were also driven by hand with scripts against this build, `main` and Node v26.3.0: cleartext https, `crl`, `tls: []` / `{ secureContext }`, the `ca` / `requestCert` matrix, the client certificate on a wrong-name server, late `setSession()`, `destroy()` in `ALPNCallback`, `[rsa, ec]` identities with an intermediate from `ca`, `WebSocket` `checkServerIdentity`, a corrupted record, the Duplex read above, `tls.DEFAULT_CIPHERS`. - The `setSession()` guard was checked against the real `abort()` at 43 handshake states. - `bun run rust:check-all`: 12 of 12 targets. `tsc`, oxlint, source lints, prettier, rustfmt, mordant clean. - usockets' `_Nonnull` is compiled out of debug builds, so 105 of those files were also run on a local release ASAN build with the CI runner's environment (92 with leak checking): 4595 pass, 1 fail, `child_process.test.ts` "spawn reports EPERM after dropping privileges", which cannot pass as root and fails on `main` too. - The close of a TLS socket over another stream ("Worth a look" 5): eleven seeded differential fuzzers, 8,424 scenarios compared, each run on a release ASAN build of this branch, on `main`, on Node v26.3.0 and on the earlier state of the branch. Against `main`: - Data that `main` delivers in full is cut in 5 scenarios, and about 150 that `main` cuts arrive in full. Of the 5, in 2 `main` never notices the peer's close and keeps the socket for good, 2 call `end()` on the middle one of three sessions over an in-memory Duplex, and 1 does the same on Node. - No dead timeout, no silent reset and no uncaught error that `main` does not have (4 uncaught errors fewer). - A socket stays open where `main` closes it in 109, and closes where `main` keeps it in 295. 92 of the 109 do the same on Node or on the earlier state (a `destroy()` that an in-memory Duplex does not show its peer, half-open peers). 14 wait for a peer that paused reading and so does not read the FIN (#42332's backpressure, as in Node); the socket's own timeout fires there. 3 are left: one on a 5 ms timer, two with three sessions over an in-memory Duplex. - The earlier state of the branch cut data in 173 of the 400 scenarios of one of them, where `main` cuts none and this cuts none. - 23 new tests pin what they found. Each earlier attempt at this fix fails the ones that describe it, the earlier state of the branch fails 7, and all pass on Node. - After that change: 999 test files on the release ASAN build (20,246 pass; the 11 files that fail need a database, Docker, DNS or a non-root user, or share a temp directory with a parallel run and pass alone), 61 on the debug build. - TLS over a file descriptor (`openssl.c`, the path of `fetch`, `Bun.serve`, `tls.connect`, `Bun.connect`) got the same treatment after the rebase: seeded differential fuzzers on CI's release build of this branch, on `main` and, for `node:*`, on Node v26.3.0. Every runtime also against itself for the noise floor, injected faults and known bugs of `main` as positive controls, and a difference counts only if it shows in 5 of 5 fresh processes. - `node:tls` over TCP: 11,500 scenarios (one connection with Node as the oracle line by line; 2 to 60 connections beside stalled neighbours; raw peers that break the handshake). HTTPS: about 136,000 runs over `Bun.serve` + `fetch`, `node:https`, `node:http2` and `wss://`, also with the two ends in different runtimes. `Bun.connect` / `Bun.listen` / `upgradeTLS`: 11,500 scenarios and 720 slow connections, with writers driven by what `write()` returns, beside up to 6 stalled, dripping, closing or resetting neighbours, and plain TCP as a second oracle. No crash, hang, duplication, reordering or silent truncation, and no change in time or in connection reuse. - They found six things that `main` does better, none of which any test showed. All are fixed, each with a test that fails on the build before: what the peer sent lost behind a rejected `send()` (23 scenarios, and an early HTTPS response lost with only `EPIPE`), the same silently for a paused reader, `server.close()` never calling back on a half-open server after a ClientHello and a reset (17), `closeAllConnections()` taking 12 s with a stalled client, `end()` losing up to 1.3 of 4 MiB that `write()` had reported while the peer still uploads, and `end()` a little after a stall never closing beside other stalled TLS sockets. The last two fixes also deliver the 1 to 2 MiB that `main` loses there, and close the socket that `main` keeps for good without such neighbours. - All of them again after every fix, on CI's release build of it. That caught one regression of a fix itself (a reader stopped for backpressure lost 86,385 bytes, 1 of 6,000 scenarios), fixed too. On the last build: scenarios that lose data where `main` does not 23 → 2, and Node loses it in both, with the same `EPIPE`; `server.close()` that never calls back 17 → 0; connections held 4 → 0; requests that end in an error only where `main` has a response 6 → 0. With a Node server in another process, a request ends in an error only in 8 and 10 of 1,500 scenarios here, 5 and 3 on `main`, 10 with Node as the client. - `Bun.connect` / `Bun.listen` on the last build against `main`, in scenarios: hangs 0 against 1,031, sockets and fds never released 0 against 965, corrupted data 0 against 345, `abort()` 0 against 26 (`setSession()` after the handshake), writers that never close 0 against 101 of 720 connections. No kind of failure shows here and not on `main`. About a third of the slow connections close later than on `main`, in 1 to 16 s instead of at once, waiting for unsent ciphertext or for the peer's close_notify, and 79 more of them deliver all that `write()` reported. RSS and time with 16 to 256 stalled writers are the same. - What they found that `main` does worse: a `WebSocket` that calls `close()` with sends pending loses messages in 81 of 999 scenarios (0 here), 37 server sockets left open, 10 `server.close()` that never call back, 20 write callbacks that never run. - The kqueue fix cannot be run on Linux. The `connectionListener` count test now says what became of a missing connection, which is how the cause was found (`'tlsClientError'` "socket hang up", then `read ECONNRESET` at the client of the same port, after its `'secureConnect'`). On macOS x64 it failed every attempt of the three builds before the fix and passed at the first attempt of the build with it. - Windows and macOS were only run by CI. Four new tests asserted what only the Linux kernel does (a FIN read ahead of a reset, unread bytes surviving a reset, loopback buffer sizes, `fstat()` on a socket) and now say so per platform. --------- Co-authored-by: autofix-ci[bot] <114827586+autofix-ci[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: robobun <117481402+robobun@users.noreply.github.com>
