Never hand one StringImpl to two threads' atom tables (object URLs, BroadcastChannel, --compile workers) - #40436
Conversation
WTF::StringImpl refcounts are atomic, but two operations are per-thread:
`Identifier::fromString` atomizes a non-atom impl *in place* into the
current thread's AtomStringTable, and the final `deref()` of an atom removes
it from the current thread's table (RELEASE_ASSERT if it is not there). So
an impl that two VMs can both reach is unsafe even if nobody drops it
off-thread: one VM atomizes it, the other uses a foreign atom as a property
key (lookups by the same text miss) and whichever thread drops it last
aborts. Four places did this:
- `URL.createObjectURL`: the process-global registry stored the Blob's
`name` impl (a JS string from the creating worker) and `global_this`, and
handed clones of that impl to every VM that resolved the URL. The entry
now keeps the name as bytes and a null global; each resolve gets its own
impl and the resolving VM's global.
- structured clone's dense-array fast path stored property-name impls with
`isolatedCopy()` and every receiver atomized them in place; with
BroadcastChannel one message has many receivers. Keys are now stored with
`isolatedCopyForSharing` (pre-hashed, never-atomize) in all three object
fast paths, so each receiver's atom table takes a copy; the simple-object
receive path drops its extra re-copy.
- `bun build --compile`: `Bun.embeddedFiles`/`Bun.file(embedded)` duped one
cached Blob (name impl + first VM's global) into every Worker, and text
modules / module source shared one cached impl per file across VMs. The
cache now holds only the immortal store; name/global are per VM, and
`to_wtf_string` returns a fresh zero-copy external impl per call.
- `fetch({ unix })` bit-copied a possibly JS-backed `Utf8Bytes` onto the HTTP
thread; the tasklet now owns the bytes and the client borrows them.
Worker `Bun.$` argv copies the parent's option strings like `process.argv`
already does. Bundler plugin namespace strings are isolated before the
bundle thread reads them.
`isThreadSafe()` additionally rejects substring and external impls, and the
async-fs path that keeps a JS string's own 8-bit impl marks it
never-atomize + pre-hashed so the JS thread cannot later atomize it in place
while the work pool holds it.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I re-reviewed after 3a472a5 and didn't find any new issues. The SAFETY-comment drift I flagged last round is resolved — both ObjectURLRegistry::Entry::init and standalone_graph_jsc::shared_blob now call name.share(), and the unsafe impl Send for Blob comment matches. Given the scope (new String::share() / BunString__share primitive, cross-VM atom-table invariants, unix_socket_path moved from owned to borrowed under the 'a lifetime, Store.is_all_ascii made atomic, File constructor name semantics), a human pass is still warranted.
Checked this round: BunString__share vs. toCrossThreadShareable agree on the copy predicate (atom/symbol/substring); resolve_and_dupe clones a share()'d name so no per-resolve isolation is needed; FetchTasklet::clear_data drops self.http before the borrowed buffers; into_utf8_with_string_thread_safe's new share() path keeps the 8-bit-ASCII zero-copy contract.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
29 files across bun_core::String, BunString.cpp, SerializedScriptValue.cpp, ObjectURLRegistry, StandaloneModuleGraph, Blob/Store, the HTTP client (AsyncHTTP/HTTPClient/FetchTasklet), and four test files. The latest commit (3a472a5) consolidates the earlier per-site fixes into one primitive, String::share() / BunString__share: pre-hash + setNeverAtomize in place for a plain impl, isolated copy for atom/symbol/substring. ObjectURLRegistry::Entry, the standalone-graph File::wtf_string cache, and the standalone-graph blob template now all share() once and hand out plain clone()s; the structured-clone object fast paths use isolatedCopyForSharing for property keys; WTFStringImpl__isThreadSafe additionally rejects substrings.
Alongside the string work: HTTPClient::unix_socket_path becomes &'a [u8] borrowed from the FetchTasklet-owned Box<[u8]> (dropping two ManuallyDrop hacks); Store::is_all_ascii becomes an atomic tri-state; new File([blob], name) writes blob.name instead of the shared store's stored_name; Blob::get_file_name() is now name-first and returns Utf8Bytes; Blob__getFileNameString returns an owned BunString and its C++ callers now transferToWTFString().
Security risks
None user-facing. The hazard class is memory safety under concurrency (per-thread atom tables, RELEASE_ASSERT(wasRemoved), foreign-atom key misses), not input validation or auth. The unix_socket_path refactor changes ownership from "owned by the HTTP-thread clone via ptr::read" to "borrowed from the JS-thread tasklet"; the new clear_data ordering (drop self.http before the buffers) is what keeps that sound, and the 'a lifetime on HTTPClient now covers it.
Level of scrutiny
High. This is exactly the REVIEW.md "most-blocked category": cross-thread lifetime of StringImpls, new unsafe impl Send/Sync justifications, a new FFI entry point that mutates a WTF impl in place, and a lifetime-erased borrow (Interned::assume) for the socket path. The PR has already been through several review rounds and each fix looks correct, but the blast radius (every --compile Worker, every BroadcastChannel object post, every object URL across workers) plus the number of coupled invariants argues for a maintainer read-through of the final String::share() shape.
Other factors
All prior inline findings (mine and CodeRabbit's) are addressed and the SAFETY comments are now consistent with the code. Four new tests each reproduce a pre-PR crash/wrong-value and pass here. The bug hunt on this revision found nothing new. The one open inline thread (my SAFETY-comment note on webcore_types.rs) is now stale — 3a472a5 rewrote that comment and both call sites to match.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
I reviewed this PR across four rounds and found no remaining issues. Because it introduces a new cross-VM string-sharing primitive (String::share() / BunString__share), rewrites several unsafe impl Send/Sync invariants, and changes user-visible File name semantics, a human look would still be worthwhile.
What was reviewed: the share()/isolatedCopyForSharing atom-table contract against WTF's in-place atomization; ObjectURLRegistry/standalone-graph template Blob ownership (null global, shared name, per-VM dupe stamping); the unix_socket_path lifetime refactor and clear_data drop ordering; is_all_ascii atomicity; and that jsdom_file_construct/Blob__setAsFile no longer write into a shared Bytes.stored_name.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR introduces String::share() (Rust) / BunString__share (C++) as the single primitive for making a WTF::StringImpl safe to hand to any number of VMs: pre-hashed, marked never-atomize, and isolated if it was already an atom/symbol/substring. It then applies that primitive to every place that was sharing an atomizable impl across threads without preparation — URL.createObjectURL's process-global registry, the structured-clone object fast paths (BroadcastChannel with N receivers), and bun build --compile embedded-file/text-module caches — each with a reproducer that crashes or miscompares on 1.4.0. Along the way it converts fetch({ unix })'s socket path from a bit-copied Utf8Bytes to an owned Box<[u8]> on the tasklet with a borrowed &[u8] on the client, makes Store.is_all_ascii atomic, moves File::cached_blob/wtf_string to OnceLock, and stops new File([a], name) from renaming a via the shared store.
Security risks
None identified. The changes tighten cross-thread ownership rather than loosening any check; no auth/crypto/permission surface is touched.
Level of scrutiny
High. This is squarely in REVIEW.md's most-blocked category — native memory safety, cross-thread lifetimes, unsafe impl Send/Sync justifications, and JSC atom-table semantics. The share() primitive becomes load-bearing for every future cross-VM string producer, the Blob Send/Sync SAFETY comments now enumerate specific invariants that must stay true, and the File name change (get_file_name now name-first, Blob__setAsFile writes blob.name instead of bytes.stored_name) is a user-visible semantic change with FormData/multipart implications. 29 files across core string handling, JSC bindings, HTTP client, and the standalone graph is well past the "simple/mechanical" threshold.
Other factors
Four prior review rounds (CodeRabbit + three of mine) surfaced and resolved: the toCrossThreadShareable external-impl guard, the clear_data drop-ordering hazard for unix_socket_path, the lossy into_utf8→clone_utf8 roundtrip in the registry entry (now uses share() directly), the subprocess-test stderr-pipe convention, and a stale DEAD-name claim in the Send SAFETY comment (superseded by 3a472a5). Every fix ships with a failing-on-1.4.0 test. The remaining scope — a new cross-cutting primitive plus rewritten unsafe invariants across several subsystems — is exactly what the guidelines say a human should sign off on.

src/jsc/bindings/BunString.cpp:218-230—BunString__share's in-place branch unconditionally callsimpl->setNeverAtomize()(a non-atomic RMW ofm_hashAndFlags) even when the flag is already set, so re-registering a resolved object URL — whosenameis a clone of the entry's already-share()d impl — writes to an impl other threads already hold.register()runsEntry::initbefore taking the map lock, so two workers can be in this write concurrently; it's a same-value race (no release-build corruption) but per REVIEW.md "benign same-value races are still UB" and TSan will flag it. Gate theelse ifon!impl->neverAtomize()so a secondshare()on an already-prepared impl is a pure read.Extended reasoning...
What the bug is
BunString__share(src/jsc/bindings/BunString.cpp:218-230) has two branches for a WTF-backed impl:if (impl->isAtom() || impl->isSymbol() || impl->isSubString()) { str->impl.wtf = isolatedCopyForSharing(*impl).releaseImpl().leakRef(); impl->deref(); } else if (!impl->isStatic()) { impl->hash(); impl->setNeverAtomize(); }
The second branch mutates the impl in place.
setNeverAtomize()is a non-atomicm_hashAndFlags |= flagread-modify-write, andm_hashAndFlagsis not atomic — the PR's own comment aboveisolatedCopyForSharingsays exactly that ("Otherwise the receivers race the lazy m_hashAndFlags update"). The design assumption is thatshare()runs once, on the producing thread, before the impl is handed out. But this PR introduces a path whereshare()is called on an impl that other threads already hold.The specific code path
Commit 3a472a5 (this PR) changed the ObjectURL registry so an
Entrystores ashare()dnameand everyresolve_and_dupeclones it (dupe_with_content_type→name: self.name.clone(), which for a WTF-backedStringjust refs the sameStringImplX). If a resolved blob is then re-registered viaURL.createObjectURL,Entry::init(ObjectURLRegistry.rs:42-46) runsblob.name.with_mut(|name| name.share())on that clone — i.e. on X again.register()callsEntry::init(blob)beforeself.map.lock(), so nothing serializes two threads hittingshare()on X concurrently. On an already-prepared impl, X is not atom/symbol/substring/static, so both fall into theelse ifbranch and both executeimpl->setNeverAtomize().Step-by-step proof
- Worker A:
const f = new File(['x'], 'ignored'); f.name = 'nm' + Math.random(); const u = URL.createObjectURL(f);→Entry::initdupes (name refs impl X), thenshare()on X — X now has its hash computed and the neverAtomize bit set. The entry is stored under the map lock. - Worker B:
const b = resolveObjectURL(u);→resolve_and_dupereturns a blob whosenameisX.clone()(same impl, +1 ref). - Worker C:
const c = resolveObjectURL(u);→ same, name refs X. - Worker B:
URL.createObjectURL(b)→register()→Entry::init(b)runs (outside the lock) → dupes b (name refs X) →share()on X → X passes the atom/symbol/substring check, is not static →impl->setNeverAtomize()writesm_hashAndFlags. - Worker C, concurrent with 4:
URL.createObjectURL(c)→ same path →impl->setNeverAtomize()writesm_hashAndFlags.
Steps 4 and 5 are concurrent non-atomic RMWs on
X->m_hashAndFlags. There is also a read/write variant: step 4 concurrent with any thread using X as a property key (which readsm_hashAndFlagsvianeverAtomize()/hash()).Why this is new to this PR
Before commit 3a472a5,
resolve_and_dupehanded each resolver a per-thread isolated copy of the name (or its own bytes), so re-registering a resolved blob calledshare()on a thread-local impl. After 3a472a5, every resolve clones the shared impl and re-registeringshare()s the shared impl. The other newshare()caller (standalone_graph_jsc::shared_blob) runs inside aOnceLock::get_or_initon a freshly-clone_utf8'd impl and cannot re-enter this way.toCrossThreadShareablehas the same in-place-mutate shape, but its structured-clone callers always start from a value owned by the sending thread.Why existing safeguards don't prevent it
String::share()'s doc comment (src/bun_core/string/mod.rs:519-521) says "Make a WTF-backed impl safe to hand to any number of threads/VMs … hand it out withclone()" — it does not warn that callingshare()again on a handed-out clone from another thread races.Entry::initcannot tell whether the incoming blob's name is an already-shared impl vs. a fresh JS string.Impact
Low. Both writers store the value already present (the neverAtomize bit was set in step 1, and
hash()is a pure read once the hash is set), so no observable corruption on any target hardware. But REVIEW.md is explicit: "benign same-value races are still UB". TSan would flag it on a re-register-from-two-workers repro. It is technically UB per the C++ memory model.How to fix
Make the in-place branch idempotent without a write when already prepared:
} else if (!impl->isStatic() && !impl->neverAtomize()) { impl->hash(); impl->setNeverAtomize(); }
The neverAtomize flag being set implies
hash()already ran (both writers of neverAtomize — this branch andisolatedCopyForSharing— pre-hash), so skipping both is correct. This also matches the existing philosophy oftoCrossThreadShareable's guards. Alternatively,Entry::initcould isolate the name (to_thread_safe()) beforeshare()so the mutated impl is always thread-local at share time — but that reintroduces a per-register copy theshare()design was meant to avoid. - Worker A:
…that already has it (other threads may hold it)

There was a problem hiding this comment.
🟡 nit: IsAllAscii::get/set use Ordering::Relaxed without a comment justifying the weakened ordering (REVIEW.md: "default to seq_cst and comment any weakened ordering")
Extended reasoning...
The new IsAllAscii atomic uses Relaxed for both load and store with no inline comment naming why weaker-than-seq_cst is sound. REVIEW.md's thread-affinity rule (repeated in this PR's own REVIEW.md edit) explicitly requires "default to seq_cst and comment any weakened ordering". Relaxed is in fact correct here — the flag is a monotonic hint that guards no other memory (a stale None just means the reader re-scans the bytes) — but per the repo rule the justification belongs at the load/store site, not implied by the struct doc. Relative to base, the field was a plain Option<bool> mutated only on the JS thread; this PR is what introduces the cross-thread atomic, so the ordering choice needs the one-line rationale.
Verification: nit — src/jsc/webcore_types.rs:553-568 (added by this PR) uses Ordering::Relaxed for both the load (line 556) and the store (line 565) with no comment naming why the weakened ordering is sound. The struct doc at lines 548-549 ("Tri-state … learned lazily by whichever thread's dupe reads or writes the full store first") describes what the flag is and who writes it, but does not address the memo
What does this PR do?
Supersedes #40408.
WTF::StringImplrefcounts are atomic, but two things are per-thread:Identifier::fromStringatomizes a non-atom impl in place into the current thread's atom table, and the finalderef()of an atom removes it from the current thread's table (RELEASE_ASSERTif it isn't there). So an atomizable impl that two VMs can both reach is unsafe even if nobody "drops it off-thread": one VM atomizes it, another then uses a foreign atom as a property key (a lookup by the same text misses), and whichever thread drops the last ref aborts. Sharing is sound when the impl is prepared for it — pre-hashed and marked never-atomize (each VM's table then takes its own copy on key use), whichpostMessage's string fast path already did viatoCrossThreadShareable. This PR adds the Rust spelling,String::make_thread_shareable()(BunString__makeThreadShareable: in place for a plain impl, isolated copy for an atom/symbol/substring), and applies it to the places that shared without it:URL.createObjectURL— the process-global registry stored the Blob'snameimpl (a JS string from the creating worker) plus itsglobal_this, and gave clones to every VM that resolved the URL. Repro (crashes 1.4.0 every run): worker A creates namedFiles and object URLs, worker B usesfetch(url).blob().nameas a key and GCs, A revokes →panic: abort(). The entry nowmake_thread_shareable()s the name once and has a null global; each resolve stamps the resolving VM's global.isolatedCopy(); the dense-array receive path atomized them in place, and aBroadcastChannelmessage has many receivers. Repro (crashes/hangs 1.4.0 every run, 12 lines):bc.postMessage([{ ["key"+r]: r }])to two workers that read the keys. Property keys are now stored withthreadShareableCopyin both object fast paths (simple object and dense array of objects), and all three receive sites use the stored key directly (the simple-object path drops its per-receive re-copy).bun build --compile+ Workers —Bun.embeddedFiles/Bun.file(embedded)duped one cached Blob (name impl + first VM'sglobal_this) into every Worker, and text modules / module source shared one cached impl per file, lazily initialized without synchronization. Repro (1.4.0): in a Worker,p[file.name] = 1; p[sameTextBuiltAtRuntime]isundefined(main:1). Both caches are nowOnceLocks holding amake_thread_shareable()d string; name/global are per VM.fetch({ unix })bit-copied a possibly JS-backedUtf8Bytesonto the HTTP thread (kept correct only by twoManuallyDrops); the tasklet now owns the bytes and the client borrows&[u8].

Storehonest:new File([a], "b.txt")renameda(a.name === "b.txt"; Node keeps"a.txt") because it wrote the name into the shared store. AFilenow carries its own name and never writes it into the store (new File([], "")/new File(["x"], "")both report""like browsers),Blob::get_file_nameis name-first — so aFormDataentry's filename, the autoContent-Dispositionfilename and the loader picked forimport(objectURL)followfile.name(the store path is still what gets opened), andBlob__getFileNameStringreturns an owned string instead of a view into the store's bytes — andStore.is_all_asciiis atomic since stores are shared across threads.Naming:
