Problem

Fix

  • A forceful close (LIBUS_SOCKET_CLOSE_CODE_FAST_SHUTDOWN, the _handle.close() destroy path) now raw-closes at once with no close_notify: a bare FIN, like node. crypto_tls.cc sends the alert only from DoShutdown, the end() path. Measured with a byte-counting relay: node writes 0 bytes at destroy, bun wrote an 88-byte alert flight.
  • A TLS socket over a generic Duplex (UpgradedDuplex) now drops its teardown payloads (the close_notify flush) once the transport's 'end' event fired. Node writes nothing there. Bun's reply alert after EOF hit writeAfterFIN (EPIPE) when the Duplex forwards to an auto-ended net.Socket, which failed the https clientError test in CI. The trailing end() still goes through the existing writableEnded probe, so a half-open transport sees our FIN.
  • The graceful paths do not change. end() still sends close_notify, and a close that answers the peer's close_notify or FIN (code 0) still replies.
  • Verified: test/regression/issue/40401.test.ts (released bun fails it with 24 stray bytes). The issue's undici repro goes from 5/5 leaked tunnels to 0/5. Also the node tls, net, http, http2, bun socket, fetch, websocket, proxy and valkey suites (remaining failures match the released binary or main's debug build, notes).

Background

  • tls.connect({ socket }) on an established net.Socket upgrades it natively: the raw handle and the TLS handle share one us_socket_t, and _destroy() closes that handle with CloseCode::FastShutdown. On a generic Duplex the engine is UpgradedDuplex, whose ciphertext goes out through the duplex's JS write.
  • us_internal_ssl_close dispatches on the close code: 0 is graceful (close_notify, defer for the peer's reply), 1 is resetAndDestroy() (RST), 2 is the destroy path.
  • A paused node stream that has unread bytes buffered does not emit 'end' when the FIN arrives, in node and bun alike. So any byte sent right before the FIN leaks a receiver that nothing reads. That receiver is exactly a byte-piping proxy whose other side already closed.
Notes

Why only the TLS row of #40401 leaked: the two plain-HTTP rows send nothing at destroy, so #39830 fixed them. The TLS row still wrote the alert.

Why node is clean in the undici repro even though node replies close_notify to a received close_notify on the graceful path: undici destroys the socket at HTTP message complete, before the TLS layer processes the server's close_notify. A variant that waits for the TLS 'end' and then destroys leaks on node exactly like bun (verified), so the regression test destroys at message complete as undici does, and asserts at the byte level: after the reply, the tunnel sees zero bytes from the client before the FIN.

The duplex commit (0a56294): with the server now destroying with a bare FIN, the client's first teardown signal is the transport EOF. The duplex engine's graceful shutdown then flushed a close_notify into the transport after its 'end', which node does not do (probed with a logging relay: node writes nothing after EOF). UpgradedDuplex already dropped teardown bytes when the duplex's own writableEnded was true; the new transport_eof flag extends that guard to a transport whose far side ended. This fixed the CI failure in node-http.test.ts ("https 'clientError' for a connection whose handshake completes after close()"), where the EPIPE from writeAfterFIN surfaced as an unhandled error.

The Windows named-pipe arm of the same close dispatch (pipe p => p.close() in src/uws_sys/socket.rs, WindowsNamedPipe::close) still takes the graceful shutdown(false) and writes the alert into the pipe before writer.end(). That arm is intentionally excluded here: it predates this PR, TLS over a named pipe is not reachable by the reported leak (TCP tunnels), and switching it to the fast shutdown moves the wrapper's close callback to a different point in the Windows teardown, which needs its own Windows verification.

ssl_handle_shutdown loses its force_fast_shutdown parameter: the only caller that passed 1 was the code-2 path, which no longer calls it.

Suites run on the debug build (linux x64): test/js/node/tls/ (1 failure, SNICallback runs even when the requested servername matches the bind hostname, ECONNREFUSED from the localhost-resolves-to-::1 container quirk, fails on the released binary too), test/js/node/net/ (13 failures, 10 match the released binary, the other two pass individually, both are plain-TCP paths this diff cannot reach), test/js/node/http/node-http.test.ts (1 failure, request via http proxy, issue#4295, same ECONNREFUSED quirk on the released binary), test/js/node/http2/ clean (484 tests), test/js/bun/net/socket.test.ts (released-binary failures plus one GC churn test that passes individually at 4.1s of its 5s budget), test/js/web/fetch/fetch.test.ts (failure set matches the released binary modulo debug-slowness timeouts on gc-heavy tests), test/js/web/websocket/websocket.test.js (same 2 failures as the released binary), test/js/node/http/node-http-connect.test.ts (1 failure, reproduced on main's debug build without this diff), test/js/bun/http/proxy.test.ts and test/js/valkey/reliability/connection-failures.test.ts clean, node-https-checkServerIdentity, tls-connect-socket-churn, tls-syscall-fault, node-tls-connect, renegotiation, node-tls-duplex-close-throw-uaf clean.

root cause · written by the author bot

Forceful destruction of a TLS socket layered over a caller-supplied transport attempted a graceful close_notify shutdown, which never propagated a FIN to the underlying socket, so a SOCKS proxy kept one tunnel open per request. The shutdown helper no longer performs the forced second SSL_shutdown() pass, and forceful closes now tear down the raw socket directly with a bare FIN rather than waiting on close_notify. The upgraded duplex also records transport EOF and drops any teardown payload once EOF is reached, ensuring the connection terminates promptly.

Destroying a TLS socket (code 2, the _handle.close() path) sent a
close_notify alert before it closed the fd. Node sends the alert only
from the end() path and closes a destroyed socket with a bare FIN. The
destroy-time alert lands in the peer's receive buffer ahead of the FIN.
A peer whose stream is paused never reads it, so that stream's 'end'
and 'close' are withheld forever. undici's SOCKS5 + requestTls flow
leaks one proxy connection per HTTPS request because of this.

Walkthrough

TLS shutdown handling now uses a single shutdown call without forced retries. Forceful destruction closes the raw socket without close_notify. UpgradedDuplex tracks transport EOF, and issue 40401 adds tunneled TLS regression coverage.

Changes

TLS shutdown behavior

Layer / File(s) Summary
Simplify TLS shutdown dispatch
packages/bun-usockets/src/crypto/openssl.c, src/runtime/socket/socket_body.rs
The shutdown helper no longer accepts a force-fast parameter or performs a second SSL_shutdown() call. Forceful closes use raw closure without close_notify. The runtime documentation reflects the updated behavior.
Track transport EOF during teardown
src/runtime/socket/UpgradedDuplex.rs
UpgradedDuplex records transport EOF, drops teardown payload after EOF, preserves trailing end() handling, and resets the state during teardown.
Verify tunneled TLS destruction
test/regression/issue/40401.test.ts
The regression test verifies echoed data, zero teardown bytes, proxy end and close events, and cleanup.

1944-1965: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Do not defer FastShutdown behind a ciphertext spill.

If ssl_drain_spill() cannot write, the earlier branch sets ssl_close_after_spill and returns before this raw-close dispatch. The Rust caller then detaches and unreferences the wrapper. If the peer does not read, no writable event follows and the native tunnel remains open.

For LIBUS_SOCKET_CLOSE_CODE_FAST_SHUTDOWN, skip spill deferral and raw-close after the bounded final drain attempt. Keep spill deferral for clean shutdown only.

On the outside-diff concern (FastShutdown deferring behind a ciphertext spill): that deferral predates this PR and is deliberate. Spilled ciphertext is data the SSL layer already reported as written, so destroy() after write() must deliver it, not cut it off. The tradeoff (a peer that never reads holds the socket open) is documented at the close() call site in socket_body.rs. This PR only removes the close_notify from the forceful close and does not change the spill path, so I am leaving it as is.

I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs — the earlier nit about test cleanup on failure paths was addressed in 2c7f234. Because this changes on-the-wire TLS shutdown semantics for every destroyed TLS socket (dropping close_notify from the destroy() path), a human look would still be worthwhile.

What was reviewed:

  • The us_internal_ssl_close dispatch: code != CLEAN_SHUTDOWN covers exactly codes 1 and 2 (the only defined values besides 0 in libusockets.h), and both ssl_handle_shutdown callers were updated for the dropped force_fast_shutdown parameter.
  • The graceful paths (end() → us_internal_ssl_shutdown, and code-0 close) still send close_notify; only destroy/reset now skip it.
  • The regression test's try/finally now closes both listeners on assertion failure; the listen() helper's lack of an error-reject was examined — loopback listen(0) failing is not a realistic hang.
Extended reasoning...

Overview

This PR changes us_internal_ssl_close in packages/bun-usockets/src/crypto/openssl.c so that a forceful close (LIBUS_SOCKET_CLOSE_CODE_FAST_SHUTDOWN, the _handle.close() / socket.destroy() path) no longer calls ssl_handle_shutdown — it raw-closes immediately with a bare FIN and no close_notify alert, matching Node's crypto_tls.cc (which only sends the alert from DoShutdown, the end() path). The now-unused force_fast_shutdown parameter and its second SSL_shutdown() call are removed. The Rust-side comment at the close(CloseCode::FastShutdown) call site in socket_body.rs is updated to describe the new behavior. A regression test (test/regression/issue/40401.test.ts) asserts at the byte level that a tunneled TLS socket's destroy sends zero bytes before the FIN and that the tunnel proxy's end/close fire.

Security risks

This is TLS shutdown-path code. Skipping close_notify on destroy is what Node does, and TLS 1.3 (RFC 8446 §6.1) makes close_notify optional when the application layer has its own end-of-data signal — but it does mean peers that rely on close_notify to distinguish a clean close from a truncation cannot do so after destroy(). That's a deliberate Node-compat tradeoff (destroy is the abortive path; end() still sends the alert), not a new vulnerability, but it's the kind of wire-level protocol semantics change a maintainer familiar with the TLS layer should sign off on.

Level of scrutiny

High. openssl.c is the SSL socket close/shutdown dispatch for every TLS connection in the runtime — Bun.serve HTTPS, node:tls, fetch, WebSocket over TLS, the SQL clients, valkey. The diff itself is small and mechanically clear (the condition rewrite from code == RESET || ssl_handle_shutdown(s, code != 0) to code != CLEAN_SHUTDOWN || ssl_handle_shutdown(s) is equivalent for code 1, changes only code 2, and leaves code 0 unchanged), and the PR description documents extensive suite runs. But per the approval guidelines, changes to crypto/TLS paths warrant human review regardless of size.

Other factors

  • My prior inline comment (server cleanup after assertions) was addressed in 2c7f234; the test now wraps the client flow in try/finally with raw.destroy() + both server.close() calls in finally.
  • The comment-cop bot re-fired on the condensed socket_body.rs comment after bf1e844; the author already shortened it once and it now documents three distinct close-code semantics rather than justifying a workaround, so I'm not treating it as a blocker.
  • One candidate issue was raised and refuted this run: the listen() helper never rejecting on server.listen error — ruled out as not a realistic hang for loopback listen(0).
  • The ciphertext-spill deferral (line 1914) still gates FAST_SHUTDOWN and predates this PR; the author's response on the thread explains why it's intentionally out of scope.

A TLS socket over a generic Duplex replied a close_notify from its
graceful shutdown after the transport's 'end' event. Node writes
nothing there. A transport that forwards to an auto-ended net.Socket
throws writeAfterFIN (EPIPE) on that write. Track the transport EOF on
UpgradedDuplex and extend the existing teardown-bytes guard with it.

The prior 🔴 finding on transport_eof is addressed: the gate now checks data.is_some(), so the trailing end() still reaches the writableEnded probe and a half-open transport sees our FIN. The remaining inline comments this pass are nits (pre-existing Windows named-pipe arm, test error-wiring). Given this changes TLS shutdown semantics on the destroy path, a human look is still worthwhile.

Extended reasoning...

The two commits since my last review (0a56294, 23bbd8c) narrowed the transport_eof gate in UpgradedDuplex::call_write_or_end from blocking all teardown-phase calls to blocking only data.is_some() payloads. The data.is_none() path (the trailing end() from on_close) now falls through to the pre-existing writableEnded probe, so a half-open duplex (e.g. duplexPair(), allowHalfOpen: true) still has its writable side ended and the peer sees EOF — the hang I flagged is resolved. The listen helper now also wires server.once('error', reject), addressing the earlier 🟡. I'm not approving because this alters TLS shutdown behavior in openssl.c and the duplex engine; the two new findings are minor and don't block on their own.

I reviewed this PR and the latest push addresses both remaining nits from my previous round: commit 89ee539 wires client.on("error", clientEnded.reject) so an RST regression fails the test with a diagnostic instead of hanging, and the PR description now documents the intentional exclusion of the Windows named-pipe arm. No further issues found. Given this changes wire-level TLS teardown semantics in us_internal_ssl_close and the duplex engine — and an earlier revision here did briefly regress the half-open case — a maintainer's look at the final shape would still be worthwhile.

What was reviewed

  • us_internal_ssl_close dispatch: code 0 still runs ssl_handle_shutdown and defers; codes 1 and 2 raw-close with no alert; the removed force_fast_shutdown parameter had no remaining caller passing 1.
  • UpgradedDuplex::call_write_or_end: the narrowed transport_eof gate drops only data.is_some() teardown payloads, so the trailing end() still reaches a half-open transport via the writableEnded probe.
  • The new field is initialized in from() and reset in teardown() alongside its siblings.
  • Regression test: resources released in finally, listen rejects on error, proxy client error rejects the awaited end.
Extended reasoning...

Overview

Four files: packages/bun-usockets/src/crypto/openssl.c (the native SSL close dispatch), src/runtime/socket/UpgradedDuplex.rs (a new transport_eof flag gating post-EOF teardown payloads), src/runtime/socket/socket_body.rs (comment rewrite documenting the close-code contract), and a new regression test at test/regression/issue/40401.test.ts. The behavioral change is that _handle.close() on the destroy path now raw-closes with no close_notify alert — a bare FIN, matching Node's crypto_tls.cc — instead of sending the alert before closing.

Security risks

This is TLS teardown ordering, not authentication, key handling, or verification. Skipping close_notify on an abrupt destroy() is what Node does and what RFC 8446 §6.1 permits (the session is not resumable anyway on abrupt close). The graceful end() path and the answer-peer-close_notify path are unchanged. I don't see a confidentiality or integrity impact; the risk surface is protocol-compat regressions in close sequencing (a peer that relied on the alert), which the extensive suite runs in the PR notes cover.

Level of scrutiny

High. This is C code in the usockets SSL close path plus Rust in the TLS-over-duplex engine, and it changes what bytes go on the wire at socket teardown. The review history bears that out: an earlier revision of the transport_eof gate (commit 0a56294) would have left a half-open transport's writable side never ended; that was caught and narrowed in 23bbd8c to drop only payload writes, letting the trailing end() through. A change that needed a mid-review correction of that kind is not one I'd wave through without a maintainer's sign-off.

Other factors

All prior review threads are substantively addressed. The two nits from my last round are handled: the test's proxy-client error now rejects the awaited clientEnded promise (commit 89ee539), and the Windows named-pipe arm's exclusion is documented in the PR description with a reason (moves the close-callback timing, needs Windows verification) — which satisfies REVIEW.md's "if a site is intentionally excluded, say so in the PR". The regression test asserts at the byte level (teardownBytes === 0) and the PR notes confirm it fails on the released binary, so it is load-bearing. The UpgradedDuplex gate is separately pinned by the existing node-http.test.ts https-clientError test per the author's reply. Given the protocol subtlety and the correction history, deferring to a human reviewer rather than approving.

CI is green (build 105412) and the regression test fails without the fix on both ASAN and release builds. The undici repro from #40401 goes from 5/5 leaked tunnels to 0/5. Ready for review.

…ect write in one segment (#40655)

### Problem

- A TLS 1.3 `tls.connect()` client whose certificate the server rejects
reports `error: read ECONNRESET` and `close(true)`. A Node client in the
same exchange reports a clean `end` and `close(false)` (#40653,
reproduced 5/5 on Linux, 20/20 by the reporter on macOS).
- The client sends its final handshake flight and the write from
`secureConnect` as two TCP segments: the custom BIO
(`BIO_s_custom_write`, `packages/bun-usockets/src/crypto/openssl.c`)
raw-writes the flight from inside `SSL_read`, before the handshake event
reaches JS. The server rejects the certificate after reading segment one
and destroys the socket with segment two unread. Linux then sends an RST
instead of a FIN, and the RST is a real ECONNRESET at the client.

### Fix

- Batch the records `SSL_read` seals while the handshake is pending.
When the handshake completes in that read, hold the batch across the
`on_handshake` dispatch. A write the callback issues appends to the held
flight, and the existing flush in `us_internal_ssl_write` sends flight
plus first application data in one kernel write. This is the segment
shape Node produces through its memory BIO.
- Any other outcome of the read flushes the batch at once. The close and
shutdown paths flush a held batch before their close_notify/FIN. An
error teardown or a destroy from inside the handshake drops it. A new
`ssl_write_batch_owner` field pins the shared per-loop batch to one
socket, and the loop-state save/zero keeps re-entrant JS (SNI/ALPN
callbacks) from mixing another socket's records into a held flight. The
snapshot size is now exported and debug-asserted at the Rust call site.
- Verified: four new tests in
`test/js/node/tls/node-tls-connect.test.ts`. The segment-count test
fails on main (3 chunks, expected 2). The cross-socket-write and
end-from-handshake tests cover the shared-slot hard paths. The issue's
script prints `secureConnect -> write -> end -> close:false` 10/10 with
the debug build. Also ran `test/js/node/tls/`, `node-http2.test.js`,
`fetch.tls.test.ts`, `bun-serve-ssl.test.ts`, and the upstream
`test-tls-*`/`test-https-*` suites.

### Background

- usockets gives every TLS socket on a loop the same BIO pair.
`loop_ssl_data->ssl_socket` routes `BIO_s_custom_write` output to the
right fd. `ssl_write_batching` already existed for
`us_internal_ssl_write`: it collects sealed records and writes them
once.
- The spill slot holds ciphertext a partial batch flush could not
deliver. SSL counts those bytes as written, so they must reach that
exact socket, in order. Batching is gated on a free spill slot for that
reason.
- In TLS 1.3 the client finishes first: it sees `secureConnect` one
round trip before the server decides on the client certificate. That is
why the rejection lands after the client already wrote application data.

<details><summary>Notes</summary>

- Diagnosis: an `LD_PRELOAD` shim logging `send`/`recv` shows Node's
client writes flight + app data as one `write(1253)` while Bun issues
`send(1152)` then `send(57)`. The server (Node in both runs) reads 1253
in one chunk from the Node client, but only 1152 from the Bun client
before it destroys.
- The RST path needs the second segment to arrive inside the window
between the server reading the flight and destroying the socket. Release
builds hit it almost always. Debug builds are slow enough that the
server's FIN usually wins, and Linux masks the late RST (`SOCK_DONE` is
checked before `sk_err` in `tcp_recvmsg`). The gate-facing test
therefore counts the client's segments through a raw in-test TCP proxy.
The count discriminates reliably on an unloaded machine; under heavy CPU
load the two unfixed sends can coalesce in the kernel, so a green run on
a loaded machine is weaker evidence than the idle fail-before recorded
here (20/20 fail on the unfixed build when idle). The end-to-end
Node-server repro is kept as a second test, `skipIf(!nodeExe())`.
- Related, not the same bug: #40412 covers the send side of a destroyed
TLS socket (bare FIN, no close_notify). #35378 holds the flight so a
verify-rejecting client's destroy can recall it; it parks the flight in
the spill slot and drains it before the callback's write, so it still
produces two segments and does not fix #40653. This PR's batch-owner
hold subsumes most of that machinery. #35378 should be restacked on top
of this as a flush-vs-release policy decision at `us_internal_ssl_close`
rather than rebased mechanically.
- Follow-up direction for this file: a per-socket outbound-ciphertext
buffer would delete the shared batch/spill slots, both owner fields, the
loop-state save slots for routing, and the cross-socket double-spill
fatal path. Worth doing before more features extend the shared-slot
surface.
- Pre-existing failures seen during the sweep, identical on an
unmodified build: `node-tls-server.test.ts` "SNICallback runs even when
the requested servername matches the bind hostname" (ECONNREFUSED in
this environment), `test/js/bun/net/` hostname-resolution failures (13,
same set on system bun), `test-tls-client-allow-partial-trust-chain.js`
(node:test runner), and `test-https-timeout.js` (hangs on a main debug
build too).

…et }) / new TLSSocket(socket) took over

Squash of #36534 rebased onto main, plus:

- Merge with #40412: UpgradedDuplex keeps transport_eof; the "no close_notify
  after the transport's EOF" rule now also covers handle-backed transports
  written natively (write_to_transport), not only the JS Duplex path.
- A still-connecting net.Socket (TCP, named pipe, or an outer TLS socket) is
  upgraded on 'connect', as node's TLSSocket._start waits for 'connect' before
  _handle.start(); fixes tls.connect({ socket }) over a connecting named pipe.
- connect() on a socket whose connection a live TLS layer runs over (fd-adopted
  or stream-level) fails with EISCONN; a never-connected wrapped socket still
  connects and upgrades afterwards.
- A stream-level engine's ciphertext parked in its transport keeps the loop
  until it drains even if node:net unref()s the handle on the peer's FIN.
- The upgradeTLS raw half's unix write2 fast path honours REJECTED like the
  other write paths.
- detach_for_reconnect tells a stream-level TLS engine its transport is gone.
- internal/net/streamTLS: computes deferHandshake itself (writableLength > 0,
  so the h2 upgrade site gets it too), falls back to the event-driven path when
  _handle is not a native socket, and shares startTLSHandshakeWhenFlushed with
  the fd-adoption path.
- oxlint no-duplicate-conditional-property-access in the deferred connect guard.

…wss via CONNECT proxy reports 1006 on a server close) (#43198)

### Problem
- A `wss://` WebSocket through a CONNECT proxy reports close code 1006
`Failed to write` when the server closes. A direct connection reports
the code of the server. A server ends TLS behind its Close frame
(`ws.close()` in `Bun.serve` does), so the frame and the close_notify
arrive in one read.
- The cause is `SSLWrapper::handle_reading` (`src/uws/lib.rs:1033`). On
`SSL_ERROR_ZERO_RETURN` it sent our close_notify (`shutdown(false)`)
before it ran the data callback for the bytes decrypted in the same
read.
- The Close echo of the client then fails in `write_data`, and
`enqueue_encoded_bytes` (`src/http_jsc/websocket_client.rs:881`) calls
`terminate(FailedToWrite)`.

### Fix
- `handle_reading` runs the data callback first, then `shutdown(false)`,
then the close callback. `openssl.c` uses this order for sockets with a
file descriptor.
- Scope: a server close with an empty client send queue. The Notes list
what still gives 1006 and what stays different from Node.
- Verified: five new cases in
`test/js/web/websocket/websocket-proxy.test.ts` (the four proxy cases
fail without the fix) and one for `node:tls` over a Duplex in
`test/js/node/tls/node-tls-connect.test.ts`. Also
`test/js/bun/http/proxy.test.ts`, and `node-tls-namedpipes.test.ts` on
Windows.
- Self-reviewed: the ten design concerns are addressed. Three test-level
items did not reach me, because the review output was cut off. The tests
assert the CONNECT request and one write with both TLS records.

### Background
- `SSLWrapper` is a TLS engine over memory BIOs. Its owners are the
WebSocket proxy tunnel, the fetch proxy tunnel, `node:tls` over a
Duplex, and Windows named pipes.
- close_notify is the TLS alert that ends one direction of a session.
`SSL_write` fails on the side that sent it.
- An endpoint that receives a WebSocket Close frame echoes it.
`CloseEvent.code` is the code of the received frame.

<details><summary>Notes</summary>

**Trace of the tunnel on main** (`BUN_DEBUG_SSLWrapper=1
BUN_DEBUG_WebSocketProxyTunnel=1`), frames and close_notify in one read:

```
[sslwrapper] just read 12
[sslwrapper] just read 0
[websocketproxytunnel] writeEncrypted: 24 bytes      <- our close_notify
[sslwrapper] triggering data callback (read 12)
[websocketproxytunnel] onData: 12 bytes              <- Close frame, the echo fails
[websocketproxytunnel] onClose
{"code":1006,"wasClean":false,"reason":"Failed to write"}
```

With this change:

```
[sslwrapper] just read 12
[sslwrapper] just read 0
[sslwrapper] triggering data callback (read 12)
[websocketproxytunnel] onData: 12 bytes
[websocketproxytunnel] writeEncrypted: 30 bytes      <- Close echo
[websocketproxytunnel] onClose
{"code":4001,"wasClean":true,"reason":""}
```

**How often.** A `Bun.serve` origin that calls `ws.close(4001)` through
the plain CONNECT proxy of the test suite gives 1006 on 20 of 20
connections on the release build.

**The tests.** Three cases use a `Bun.serve` origin that calls
`ws.close(4001, "bye")` from its message handler: direct, `http` proxy,
`https` proxy. They use the plain proxy of the suite, so the network
decides if both TLS records arrive in one read. On the builds without
the fix they did so on every run here (release and debug, Linux and
Windows). Two more cases pin it. The client arms the proxy from its
`open` handler and sends `go`. A raw TLS origin answers with
`socket.end(frames)`. The proxy holds the bytes until two complete TLS
records are buffered (the frames, then the alert) and forwards them in
one write. The assertion also checks the CONNECT request and that
exactly one write with two records reached the client. 20 reruns of all
five cases pass on the debug build.

**Not fixed here.** These routes keep their current behavior. Each one
needs its own change and test.

- `node:tls` over a Duplex or a Windows named pipe: `socket.write()`
from the `data` handler for the last bytes fails with
`ERR_SOCKET_CLOSED`, and the peer never gets the bytes. Node v26.3.0 and
Bun's file descriptor path deliver them. The write is refused in
`socket_body.rs`, because `SSLWrapper::is_shutdown()` includes
`received_ssl_shutdown`. `us_internal_ssl_is_shut_down` in `openssl.c`
checks only the sent side. The follow-up is a write-side predicate for
the wrapper. It needs the order from this PR first, because `write_data`
failed on `sent_ssl_shutdown` before.
- WebSocket tunnel with queued outbound data: the close dispatch waits
in `close_dispatch_pending`, and `WebSocketProxyTunnel::on_close` calls
`fail(Ended)` without a look at it. The client reports 1006 `Connection
ended`. The direct path honors it in `handle_close`.
- `WebSocketProxyTunnel::write` maps `WantRead` and `WantWrite` to
`ConnectionClosed`, so an echo during a TLS 1.2 renegotiation still
gives 1006 `Failed to write` (see also #37094).
- The arm of `handle_reading` that refuses a renegotiation closes
without a flush of the bytes already decrypted in that read.
- The WebSocket tunnel ends TLS without close_notify after a clean
close. This is not new: on main the tunnel sent close_notify only in the
one-read flow, where the WebSocket close failed. After a close that
worked (Close frame and close_notify in separate reads, or a client
`ws.close()`), `clear_data()` tears the tunnel down with a fast
shutdown, which queues close_notify but does not flush it. The one-read
flow is now the same. The follow-up is a graceful `shutdown(false)` in
the clean close of the tunnel, after the Close frame is flushed. The
fast path itself cannot flush, because it is also `destroy()` for
`node:tls` over a Duplex, where Node sends no close_notify (#40412).

**Other owners of `SSLWrapper`.**

- `node:tls` over a Duplex: the `data` event for the last bytes now
fires before the close_notify reply is written to the Duplex. Before, it
fired after. Node v26.3.0 emits the data first too. The new case in
`node-tls-connect.test.ts` pins this order with an in-memory Duplex
pair.
- fetch proxy tunnel: a response and close_notify in one read still
completes the response. `received_ssl_shutdown` is still set before the
data callback, so `is_shutdown()` is true there as before, and
`tunnel_poolable` still refuses to pool such a tunnel.
- An owner that tears the wrapper down from the last data callback
(`shutdown(true)`) now takes the normal fast shutdown path, not the
`sent_ssl_shutdown` early return. Both run the close callback, so the
guard after the data callback still returns. A fast shutdown queues
close_notify but does not flush it, as for every other fast shutdown. So
in this case the tunnel no longer writes a close_notify reply. The
WebSocket tunnel already behaves this way for a client `ws.close()`.
- The early return in `shutdown(true)` stays reachable from a fatal
read. `response + corrupt TLS record in one packet` in `proxy.test.ts`
covers it.

**Suites run with the change.** Linux debug build:
`websocket-proxy.test.ts`, `websocket-proxy-close-reentrancy`,
`websocket-proxy-tunnel-client-leak`,
`websocket-proxy-tunnel-upgrade-leak`, `test-ws-bidir-proxy`,
`first_party/ws/ws-proxy.test.ts`, `bun/http/proxy.test.ts` (92 pass,
includes the ASAN test from #31959), `node-tls-connect`,
`node-tls-upgrade`, `node-tls-duplex-close-throw-uaf`,
`node-tls-duplex-write-throw-error-value`,
`node-tls-socket-allow-half-open-option`, `renegotiation`, and the Node
parallel tests `test-tls-js-stream`, `test-tls-inception`,
`test-tls-destroy-stream`, `test-tls-socket-allow-half-open-option`,
`test-tls-streamwrap-buffersize`, `test-http2-generic-streams`. Windows
x64 debug build: `websocket-proxy.test.ts` (four proxy cases fail
before, all pass after) and `node-tls-namedpipes.test.ts` (6 pass, same
run time with and without the change).
