Parse a private copy of a shared or resizable buffer in Bun.Transpiler, Bun.markdown, Bun.YAML and Bun.TOML

[robobun]

Problem

• Bun.Transpiler#transformSync/scan/scanImports, Bun.markdown.*, Bun.YAML.parse and Bun.TOML.parse parse a SharedArrayBuffer view in place. A Worker that writes it mid-call aborts: panic: index out of bounds: the len is 1 but the index is 1 (src/js_parser/lexer.rs:3287). TOML segfaults.
• Each parser reads a byte twice: the lexer counts _ separators, allocates len - count, then re-reads the digits.
• On one thread, a callback or macro that shrinks, overwrites or transfer()s the input gives a SEGV or garbage.

Fix

• Add ArrayBuffer::can_change_under_borrow (shared || resizable) and try_copy_bytes. StringOrBuffer::from_js_stable copies such a view, so only this thread writes what the parser reads.
• scanImports, Bun.markdown.* and the Bun.YAML/TOML/JSON5/XML scaffold call it. transformSync and scan run macros, so they copy every buffer.
• Verified: test/js/bun/util/parse-shared-buffer.test.ts and new cases in test/js/bun/md/md-render-callback.test.ts fail unfixed, pass fixed. Suites are in Notes.

Background

• Another thread can write a SharedArrayBuffer during a native call. resize() unmaps a resizable buffer's trimmed pages, and a pin does not stop it.
• Considered a copy for every sync caller of StringOrBuffer::from_js: hashers and socket writes read once and would pay for nothing.

Downsides

• A buffer passed to transformSync or scan costs one more allocation and memcpy per call: 2.2 µs at 100 KiB, against 1.8 ms for the call (0.12%).
• Not fixed: a Bun.markdown callback that overwrites a fixed input, and the other callers of StringOrBuffer::from_js.
• The SharedArrayBuffer copy is a plain memcpy, not free of a data race under Rust's memory model.

Notes

Crash signatures. transpiler: panic: index out of bounds: the len is 1 but the index is 1 (src/js_parser/lexer.rs:3287) and attempt to subtract with overflow (lexer.rs:3306). markdown: called Option::unwrap() on a None value (src/md/html_renderer.rs:463). YAML: assertion failed: self.input[pos.cast()] == unit (src/parsers/yaml.rs:792). TOML: SIGSEGV on release, heap-buffer-overflow in to_utf16_alloc under ASAN.

Self-review. 3 concerns raised, 3 addressed: the resizable arm had no test (added the single-thread cases), the copy and its predicate duplicated PinnedArrayBuffer::copy_if_resizable and TextDecoder.rs:304 (moved both onto bun_jsc::ArrayBuffer), and the text implied the lexers are closed (see "Still open").

The race test. The fixture's worker flips only the bytes the parser reads twice, with Atomics.store. The main thread counts a call only when the worker made a pass while it ran, so a release build that finishes 1000 calls before the worker gets a core still overlaps.

• transformSync and scanImports: every _ of 1_000_000_000_000_000 flips to 0.
• markdown and ansi: byte 0 of # heading flips to a newline. The block parser starts the heading text after the #, then scans for the end of the line from the # again (src/md/blocks.rs:602, attempt to subtract with overflow on debug, index out of bounds: the len is 21 but the index is 4294967295 on release).
• yaml: each v of a plain scalar flips to w.
• toml: each byte of € flips to a.

Calibration on the unfixed debug+ASAN build: every mode aborts 3/3 at 200 calls, and all but markdown 3/3 at 50. With src/ at origin/main the file fails every test. With the fix, on main 4b02e1031, it passes 8/8 in 3/3 runs (0.6 to 3.0 s per test at a host load average over 200). The release canary 367d939d9 fails the file in 2/2 runs (15 of 16 tests). The race rows run one at a time: each fixture keeps two cores busy, and eight at once timed out at the 5 s default on a loaded host.

Release dating. This is a regression in 1.4.0. With the same fixture, 1.3.14 survives all five modes (0 of 5 runs abort at 1000 calls, 0 of 3 at 100000 calls). 1.4.0 aborts at 1000 calls: transpiler 5/5, markdown 4/5, ansi 5/5, yaml 5/5, toml 5/5 (Segmentation fault at address 0x47700610061). The current canary (b99371011) still aborts.

The single-thread tests. md-render-callback.test.ts: an option getter (html, ansi, react) or a render callback (render) calls resize(0) on the input. parse-shared-buffer.test.ts: a macro calls resize(0) on the transformSync input. Without the fix these are SEGV ... in bun_md::helpers::skip_utf8_bom and a lexer SEGV. A second macro case fills a fixed-length input with spaces and then calls transfer() on it. Without the fix, transformSync prints export const = ... and scan returns exports of spaces. scanImports runs no macros and keeps from_js_stable. A fixed, unshared source over Source::MAX_PARSEABLE_LEN (2 GiB) is not copied: the parser rejects it by its length before a macro can run (test/js/bun/transpiler/source-too-large.test.ts). A shared or resizable source is copied at any size, because the text, md and json5 loaders do not check the length and would read it in place. That one case has no test, because it needs a 2 GiB copy. #31730 fixes the markdown half for resizable && !shared. This PR covers that case too.

The copy. StringOrBuffer is the parsed "string or BufferSource" argument: its Buffer arm borrows the JS bytes and its Utf8(Owned) arm holds the copy. try_copy_bytes reserves with try_reserve_exact and copies through the raw pointer. TextDecoder.decode and PinnedArrayBuffer::copy_if_resizable use it too. No &[u8] covers bytes that another thread writes. It is #[inline(never)], so no consumer is compiled together with the copy and made to read the source again. The async transform() and StringOrBuffer::from_js_to_owned_slice (Bun.password, Bun.build onLoad) made the same copy through byte_slice().to_vec(). They now call it too, and an allocation failure there throws OutOfMemoryError.

The copy is a plain memcpy, not an atomic loop. Measured at 1 MiB on the build machine: copy_nonoverlapping 24.3 GB/s, a byte-wise AtomicU8 loop 3.4 GB/s, a word-wise AtomicUsize loop 13.9 GB/s. TextDecoder.decode of a 1 MiB ASCII shared view runs at 0.229 ns per byte on the canary, so the byte-wise loop (0.29 ns per byte) would about double it.

Cost, measured. The work code_from_js adds to transformSync and scan for a buffer is one reserve, one memcpy and one free. Measured alone in a release-mode loop, best of 7 rounds (worst in brackets): 28 ns (39) at 1 KiB, 2.2 µs (2.4) at 100 KiB, 36 µs (51) at 1 MiB. transformSync of a TypeScript buffer of the same size on the release canary 367d939d9: 39 µs (68), 1.8 ms (2.5), 23.6 ms (31.2). That is 0.07%, 0.12% and 0.15%. The host load average was over 300, so the spread of the call is far larger than the copy. A string argument pays nothing. A fixed, unshared buffer on the other paths pays one branch. Per process: no host function, binding or codegen entry, and no startup work. The diff adds six small functions. Binary size is not measured: bloaty, perf and valgrind are not installed here, and I did not build a release pair of the base and the head.

Predicate. The text-format scaffold runs no JS between the borrow and the parse, so resizable alone cannot change its bytes there. It shares the one predicate anyway. The cost is one copy on a rare input shape. #42192 adds ArrayBuffer::pin_cannot_hold (!shared && (resizable || wasm_memory)). Once both land, can_change_under_borrow is shared || pin_cannot_hold(), a one-line change.

Not affected. Bun.Transpiler#transform (async) already copies its input before it schedules the job. Bun.XML.parse and Bun.JSON5.parse share the scaffold and now get the copy too. Neither aborted in 200k calls on the same rig without the fix. Bun.JSONC.parse stringifies a buffer argument. A Blob argument owns its bytes.

Still open. This PR covers these entry points only. The parsers still expect bytes that do not change.

• A Bun.markdown callback that calls transfer() on a bufferless input over 1000 bytes detaches it, because the pin holds nothing for such a view. The render then reads the bytes that moved. This is the same on main. Pin the storage of a typed array that has no ArrayBuffer while native code borrows it #42185 fixes the pin.
• A Bun.markdown render callback that overwrites a fixed input in place still changes what the rest of the render reads. The pin keeps the memory valid. The output then reflects the overwrite.
• Bun.plugin onLoad contents over a SharedArrayBuffer borrows view->vector() (src/jsc/bindings/ModuleLoader.cpp:307) and reaches the same lexer. It aborts 3/3 on 1.4.3 with the same panic. Bun.plugin: transpile a copy of typed array onLoad contents #42405 copies it.
• The other sync callers of StringOrBuffer::from_js keep the borrow on purpose. CryptoHasher reads each byte once, and digest(into) writes through the borrow. Bun.password, socket, TLS, HTTP/2 and Bun.Terminal writes make one pass to a syscall or a codec. Bun.build files copies at once. Bun.gzipSync/deflateSync read twice in libdeflate: Copy a shared input before libdeflate compresses it in Bun.gzipSync and Bun.deflateSync #42249.
• StringOrBuffer::from_js_async (node:fs, zlib, crypto work-pool jobs) still hands a pool thread a live SharedArrayBuffer. Decode a private copy of a JS buffer in the UTF-8 decoders #41574 covers the UTF-8 decoders.

Suites on the debug+ASAN build at main 4b02e1031: transpiler, markdown and text-decoder* 1965 pass, YAML/TOML/JSON5/JSONC/XML 6482 pass, password.test.ts 76 pass, bundler_plugin.test.ts 65 pass, 0 fail.

Navigate logical layers of code changes, visualize relationships, and explore their blast radius.

Walkthrough

JavaScript buffer inputs are stabilized in parsing, rendering, and decoding paths. Transpiler input handling distinguishes mutable buffers from large fixed, unshared buffers. New tests cover resizable buffers, concurrent shared-buffer mutation, and mutation during transpiler macros.

Changes

Stable buffer parsing

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Buffer stabilization primitives src/jsc/array_buffer.rs, src/runtime/node/types.rs, src/runtime/webcore/TextDecoder.rs	Adds buffer-change detection and fallible byte copying. Stable input conversion copies buffers that can change while borrowed. TextDecoder.decode also copies those buffers and reports allocation failure.
Parser and renderer integration src/runtime/api.rs, src/runtime/api/JSTranspiler.rs, src/runtime/api/MarkdownObject.rs	Uses stable input conversion for Blob, transpiler, Markdown, and text-source paths. Transpiler scan and transformSync apply size-based handling to fixed, unshared buffers. transform uses fallible copying.
Mutable buffer regression coverage test/js/bun/md/md-render-callback.test.ts, test/js/bun/util/parse-shared-buffer-*	Tests resizable buffers during Markdown rendering, concurrent shared-buffer writes during parsing, and input mutation during transpiler macros.

Suggested reviewers: dylan-conway

Priority: ➖ Normal

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to e82a5

The change copies shared, resizable and macro-mutable inputs before parsing, which prevents the reported parser crashes and corrupted output. The remaining concern is that the raw copy of concurrently written shared memory is not formally data-race-free. This is bounded, so the PR is mergeable with owner awareness.

Status: ready for review. The diff is green so far, and the PR needs a maintainer to merge. PR: #42310

CI (build 122632, 78a30f5ab2): 180 of 181 jobs pass and none failed. One darwin any x64 test shard is still running. The new tests pass on every finished lane with no retry.

How I reproduced it (released 1.4.3-canary 5f554969b and a debug+ASAN build of main, linux x64):

• A Worker flips a few bytes of a SharedArrayBuffer with Atomics.store while the main thread calls the parser on a view of it. The flipped bytes are the ones each parser reads twice. test/js/bun/util/parse-shared-buffer-fixture.ts is that repro.
  • transformSync and scanImports: every _ of 1_000_000_000_000_000 flips to 0. panic: index out of bounds: the len is 16 but the index is 16 (src/js_parser/lexer.rs:3287).
  • Bun.markdown.html and ansi: byte 0 of # heading flips to a newline. attempt to subtract with overflow (src/md/blocks.rs:602) on debug, index out of bounds: the len is 21 but the index is 4294967295 on release.
  • Bun.YAML.parse: each v of a plain scalar flips to w. assertion failed: self.input[pos.cast()] == unit (src/parsers/yaml.rs:792).
  • Bun.TOML.parse: each byte of € in a string flips to a. SIGSEGV on release, heap-buffer-overflow in to_utf16_alloc under ASAN.
• On one thread: an option getter or a render callback calls resize(0) on a resizable Bun.markdown input, or a macro calls it on the transformSync input. SEGV ... in bun_md::helpers::skip_utf8_bom and a lexer SEGV.
• On one thread: a macro fills a fixed-length transformSync or scan input with spaces and calls transfer() on it. transformSync prints export const = ... and scan returns exports of spaces.
• Release dating with the same fixture: 1.3.14 survives all five modes (0 of 5 runs at 1000 calls, 0 of 3 at 100000 calls). 1.4.0 aborts in all five.

Without the fix, every mode aborts within 200 calls on the debug build, and the released binary fails every test in parse-shared-buffer.test.ts. With the fix, both test files pass.

@robobun, your commit 78a30f5 is building: #122632

[claude]

I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. Because it changes how several native parser entry points borrow bytes from JS-owned buffers — a memory-safety-sensitive area — a human look would still be worthwhile.

What was reviewed

• try_copy_bytes uses try_reserve_exact + extend_from_slice (same shape the old copy_if_resizable inlined) and byte_slice() copies exactly the view's bytes; ArrayBuffer::slice() is an alias for byte_slice(), so the TextDecoder path is byte-identical apart from OOM now throwing instead of panicking.
• copy_if_can_change only matches StringOrBuffer::Buffer, which is the only variant sync from_js can produce for a shared/resizable view; after the copy, MarkdownObject::pin correctly falls through to None since the value is now Utf8(Owned).
• Tests follow the harness rules: test.concurrent, concurrent pipe drain with a combined {stdout, stderr} assertion before exitCode, tempDir/bunExe/bunEnv, Buffer.alloc(n, fill), and the fixture gates on Atomics.load(passes) progress rather than sleeping.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

This PR hardens Bun.Transpiler (scan/transformSync/scanImports), Bun.markdown (html/ansi/render/react), the shared with_text_format_source_encoded scaffold behind Bun.YAML/TOML/JSON5/XML, and TextDecoder.decode against inputs whose bytes can change mid-call. It adds ArrayBuffer::can_change_under_borrow() and ArrayBuffer::try_copy_bytes() in src/jsc/array_buffer.rs, adds StringOrBuffer::copy_if_can_change() and from_js_stable() constructors in src/runtime/node/types.rs, and switches the listed callers to them. PinnedArrayBuffer::copy_if_resizable is refactored to reuse try_copy_bytes. New tests cover both the concurrent SharedArrayBuffer race (via a worker fixture that flips parser-sensitive bytes and counts only calls that overlapped a worker pass) and the single-threaded resizable-buffer shrink (via option getters, render callbacks, and a macro).

Security risks

The bugs being fixed are process aborts / SEGVs reachable from user JS by handing a SharedArrayBuffer or resizable ArrayBuffer to a parser and then mutating it — a DoS class. The fix is a defensive private copy, gated on shared || resizable, with allocation failure surfaced as a JS OOM error rather than a panic. I did not find new attack surface: the non-shared/non-resizable path is unchanged, and the copy path reuses the exact allocation shape copy_if_resizable already used. No auth, crypto, or permission code is touched.

Level of scrutiny

High. REVIEW.md flags native memory safety as the most-blocked category, and this change sits squarely in "never let a slice outlive the memory it points into" and "anything that can run user JS can synchronously free your state". The per-call-site edits are mechanical (from_js → from_js_stable), but the new helpers and their interaction with StringOrBuffer variants, pin(), and PinnedArrayBuffer deserve a maintainer's eye. The PR also enumerates deliberately-excluded siblings and open follow-ups (onLoad contents, from_js_async, libdeflate) that a maintainer should confirm they agree with scoping out.

Other factors

The tests are well-constructed against the repo's rules: subprocess pipes drained concurrently, combined-object assertion before exitCode, test.concurrent for independent spawns, Atomics-gated progress instead of sleeps, tempDir/bunExe/bunEnv/Buffer.alloc per harness conventions, and the markdown cases added to the existing md-render-callback.test.ts. The PR description includes calibration numbers showing each race test aborts on the unfixed build and finishes in a few seconds fixed. No CODEOWNERS entry covers the changed paths. I found nothing to block on, but the breadth across native parser entry points and the memory-safety subject matter make this a change where a human sign-off is appropriate.

[robobun]

I fixed the Bun.plugin onLoad follow-up that this PR names in #42405. On the way I found a case that can_change_under_borrow does not cover. transformSync runs macros, and a macro can overwrite or detach a fixed-length, unshared input. The printer then reads identifier names and string literals back from bytes that the call no longer owns.

// macro.ts
export function clobber() {
  globalThis.input.fill(0x20);
  globalThis.input.buffer.transfer();
  return "clobbered";
}

// index.ts
import { join } from "node:path";
const source =
  "import { clobber } from " + JSON.stringify(join(import.meta.dir, "macro.ts")) + ' with { type: "macro" };\n' +
  "export const fromTheMacro = clobber();\n" +
  "export const afterTheMacro = 'after the macro';\n";
const bytes = new TextEncoder().encode(source);
globalThis.input = new Uint8Array(new ArrayBuffer(bytes.length));
globalThis.input.set(bytes);
console.log(new Bun.Transpiler({ loader: "ts" }).transformSync(globalThis.input));

Canary 1.4.3 (4ff9193) prints export const = "clobbered"; and export const = " ";. I did not run it against this branch. The input is not shared and not resizable, so from_js_stable leaves it borrowed. #42405 copies every view for that reason.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked that code_from_js copying every fixed buffer means transformSync/scan no longer read a pre-pin FastTypedArray vector, that copy_if_resizable still swaps ptr and reports extra memory after moving onto try_copy_bytes, and that TextDecoder's untyped owned_input infers cleanly as the new Vec<u8>.

Extended reasoning...

This run re-read src/jsc/array_buffer.rs, src/runtime/node/types.rs, src/runtime/api/JSTranspiler.rs, MarkdownObject.rs, api.rs and TextDecoder.rs in the new commit; the only remaining concerns are the two posted inline findings plus one verified finding not posted, so no approval.

Additional findings (outside the current diff — GitHub can't attach inline comments there):

• 🟡 src/runtime/api/JSTranspiler.rs — nit: maintainers are left with two sibling copy sites that still read SharedArrayBuffer bytes through a &[u8], the shape the new helper's SAFETY comment at src/jsc/array_buffer.rs:174 says must not exist. transform() at src/runtime/api/JSTranspiler.rs:1382 does buffer.byte_slice().to_vec() on any buffer, shared included, and from_js_to_owned_slice at src/runtime/node/types.rs:399 does the same. Fix: route every copy-out of a possibly shared buffer through ArrayBuffer::try_copy_bytes (or a wrapper that reports extra memory), which covers both sites. Same pattern at 2 sites (src/runtime/api/JSTranspiler.rs:1382, src/runtime/node/types.rs:399).

  Why this was flagged

  A user passes a Uint8Array over a SharedArrayBuffer to Bun.Transpiler#transform (async) while a Worker writes it. transform at src/runtime/api/JSTranspiler.rs:1381-1384 calls code_arg.as_array_buffer(global) then buffer.byte_slice().to_vec(); byte_slice at src/jsc/array_buffer.rs:616 builds &[u8] with from_raw_parts over the shared bytes, which another thread is writing. from_js_to_owned_slice at src/runtime/node/types.rs:398-403 has the same byte_slice() then to_vec() shape. The PR adds try_copy_bytes at src/jsc/array_buffer.rs:168-180 precisely so the read stays on a raw pointer, and its SAFETY comment states no &[u8] may cover shared bytes, but leaves these two sibling copy-out sites in the touched files on the old shape. On the base branch they behave the same; the consequence is a formally racy &[u8] (UB under the rules REVIEW.md applies to same-value races) rather than a reproducible crash, so this is a consistency nit, not a behavior change.

  Verification: transform() at /home/claude/bun/src/runtime/api/JSTranspiler.rs:1381-1384 and from_js_to_owned_slice at /home/claude/bun/src/runtime/node/types.rs:398-403 do byte_slice().to_vec() while a Worker writes a SharedArrayBuffer. The try_copy_bytes SAFETY comment (array_buffer.rs:174) says no &[u8] may cover those bytes. Outcome is the same torn copy either way, so nothing user-visible breaks.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Beyond the inline finding, I also checked: scan/transformSync no longer pin and then slice the original view — code_from_js copies every buffer before the parse, so the FastTypedArray pin-then-slice path raised on the previous push is gone; scanImports borrowing a fixed buffer across the loader argument's toString is unchanged from the base branch, not introduced here; and the copy_if_resizable / TextDecoder.decode rewiring onto try_copy_bytes preserves the old behavior (same predicate, same report_extra_memory, empty copy for a detached buffer).

Extended reasoning...

The commit routes shared/resizable buffer input for Bun.Transpiler, Bun.markdown, Bun.YAML/TOML and TextDecoder through a private copy, with new helpers on jsc::ArrayBuffer and StringOrBuffer. One pre-existing memory-safety finding on the markdown render-callback path remains for a human to weigh, so this stays a defer rather than an approve.
