I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. Because it threads a behavioral change through seven parallel sites in Bun__deepEquals (array loops, both structure fast-path walks, the slow path, the tail loop, and the Error path) and interacts with several other open PRs touching the same function, a human look would still be worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
- Exception discipline — every new
get/getIfPropertyExists/recursive call is followed byRETURN_IF_EXCEPTION;isAsymmetricMatcherruns no user code so needs none. - GC/UAF safety —
matcherOnlyKeysholdsIdentifiers (refcounted, not JSValues) and theget()lookups run only after bothforEachPropertywalks finish, preserving the existing PropertyTable-rehash guard. - Gating — every new branch is behind
!isStrict && enableAsymmetricMatchers(or the runtimemodeequivalent), sotoStrictEqualand the Nodeassertpath compile to the pre-existing code. - Traced the fast-path
count/remainaccounting with a matcher-only key on either side; it stays consistent.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
The PR changes Bun__deepEquals in src/jsc/bindings/bindings.cpp so that when one side of a toEqual comparison has an asymmetric matcher at a key/index the other side lacks, the matcher is invoked with undefined (or an inherited value via ordinary get()) instead of the comparison short-circuiting to false. It also fixes a segfault where an empty JSValue was fed to a matcher. Seven sites are updated: the two array loops, the array-symbol slow path, both forEachProperty branches of the structure fast path (with a new deferred matcherOnlyKeys list), the property-name slow path and its tail loop, and the Error-object path in specialObjectsDequalSlow. A new isAsymmetricMatcher() helper mirrors the set of types matchAsymmetricMatcherAndGetFlags handles. Eleven tests are added to test/js/bun/test/expect.test.js.
Security risks
None identified. This is test-runner comparison logic; no auth, crypto, filesystem, or network surface. The only user-code execution added is o->get() on the "missing" side and the matcher callback itself, both of which the function already invokes elsewhere and both of which are exception-checked. isAsymmetricMatcher guards isEmpty()/isCell() before asCell(), so the empty-JSValue crash class is closed rather than opened.
Level of scrutiny
Medium-high. Bun__deepEquals backs toEqual, toContainEqual, Bun.deepEquals, and (via other template instantiations) Node assert. It is heavily templated with several parallel fast/slow paths that must stay in lockstep, and REVIEW.md calls out exactly this class of change (exception checks after every JS-entering call, no raw JSValues in std containers, deferring anything that can rehash a PropertyTable). I verified each of those invariants holds: Vector<Identifier> is refcounted string storage, not GC-managed; the deferred get() calls run after the structure walks; every new call site has RETURN_IF_EXCEPTION; and all new behavior is if constexpr-gated so isStrict and !enableAsymmetricMatchers instantiations compile to the old code.
Other factors
The test coverage is thorough — both directions, holes vs past-end, Error props, inherited getters, the own-accessor slow path, nested containers, and the toStrictEqual negative — and lives in the existing expect.test.js per convention. No CODEOWNERS entry covers these paths. The PR description notes four other open PRs modifying Bun__deepEquals; a maintainer should confirm the intended landing order. Given the number of parallel sites touched in a correctness-critical templated function, I'm deferring rather than approving so a human familiar with the deepEquals invariants can sign off.

I had a second branch for #42529 (the handoff from the #34647 work). It is not pushed and it is withdrawn, because this PR covers the issue. Two findings and some test rows from it follow. I ran each line on e287ff9 (debug build), on 1. Two shapes where this PR says equal and // a) an object that is not plain, against a plain object of matchers

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked two things and ruled them out: a matcher past the end of a shorter array now passing when it accepts undefined (bindings.cpp:1053) follows the non-strict array loop's existing treatment of a hole or past-the-end slot as undefined, so it is not a new divergence; and matcherOnlyKeys holds Identifiers rather than JSValues, so deferring the compare until after the structure walks introduces no unrooted JS values, and the o2->getDirect(entry.offset()) read at bindings.cpp:1223 uses an offset from o2's own structure walk.
Extended reasoning...
The change is confined to Bun__deepEquals and specialObjectsDequalSlow in src/jsc/bindings/bindings.cpp plus new tests in test/js/bun/test/expect.test.js; it touches no security-sensitive surface. Inline findings are being posted on the slow-path positional tail loop and the fast-path count bookkeeping, and the hunt stopped at its bug cap, so a human should review the remaining paths.
Findings marked 🟡 are optional suggestions and need no follow-up push.

🟣 pre-existing, not blocking: pre-existing: a matcher at a symbol key that only the expected array has is never evaluated, so toEqual passes where Jest fails. The array own-property walk at bindings.cpp:1079-1111 iterates a1 only; unlike the object paths there is no "remaining properties in the other object" pass, so a2-only keys are ignored and bindings.cpp:1113 returns true. expect([1]).toEqual(Object.assign([1], { [sym]: expect.any(Function) })) passes; Jest pushes the matcher-only key and fails. Fix: after the a1 loop, walk a2's keys absent from a1 and require each to be undefined or a matcher that accepts o1->get(key), mirroring bindings.cpp:1355-1378.
A small fix can ride a push you are already making; otherwise a short reply is enough.
Why this was flagged
Two arrays whose index elements match, where the expected (v2) array carries an own enumerable symbol-keyed property that the received (v1) array lacks, e.g. expect([1]).toEqual(Object.assign([1], { [Symbol("s")]: expect.any(Function) })), reaching Bun__deepEquals via JSC__JSValue__jestDeepEquals (bindings.cpp:3325). After the index loops, bindings.cpp:1064-1069 collects symbol keys of both arrays but bindings.cpp:1071 sets propertyLength = a1.size() and the loop at :1079 walks only a1; there is no pass over a2's extra keys, so :1113 returns true. Jest's eq adds every asymmetric-matcher key of b that a lacks to aKeys and evaluates eq(undefined, any(Function)) → false. This is pre-existing: the base also returns true for Object.assign([1], { [sym]: 5 }) as the expected side. The PR's new code at :1097-1101 handles the mirror case (matcher on o1, key missing on o2) at this site but does not add the reverse pass that every object path (:1355-1378, :1263-1273, :1717-1741) has, so the fix is incomplete for arrays with symbol keys.
Verification: pre-existing. Trigger: non-strict toEqual on two arrays where only the expected array (v2) carries an own enumerable symbol-keyed property. The loop at bindings.cpp:1079 walks only a1's keys; the only a2 check is the isStrict size comparison at :1072-1076, which is compiled out for toEqual, so a2-only keys are never read and :1113 return true; fires. Base branch is identical, so merging makes nothing worse.
…-path count exact The property name slow path and the Error walk compared the second object's extra names by position. A matcher at a shared name that sits after an extra name could then accept the extra name unseen. Both walks now skip every name the first object enumerates and check the rest. The structure fast path counted a deferred matcher-only key toward the membership budget of the reverse walk. Count only the pairs it compares. The crash shapes also run in a child process.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked two things and ruled them out: a matcher past the end of a shorter array now passes in toEqual where Jest's array-length check would fail, but Bun's loose path already accepted a trailing undefined slot there before this PR, so the array rule is consistent with existing behavior rather than a new divergence; and the if constexpr (checkPrototypes) branch in the new by-name a2 walk is never instantiated with isStrict=false today, so it is dead but harmless.
Extended reasoning...
The change touches only Bun__deepEquals and specialObjectsDequalSlow in src/jsc/bindings/bindings.cpp plus new tests in test/js/bun/test/expect.test.js; it touches no auth, crypto, or input-parsing surface. The two posted inline findings (a DontEnum own property on received treated as absent in the slow-path a2 walk, and the untested behaviour change in the <false,false,false> instantiation used by node:assert deepEqual) are what keep this from an approval; this note only records what else was examined.

🟡 nit (optional): Bun.deepEquals(a, b, false) and node:assert deepEqual change behaviour here with no test, and the PR text calls that path untouched. The by-name a2 walk under if constexpr (!isStrict) at bindings.cpp:1356 is compiled into the <false, false, false> instantiation, so Bun.deepEquals({ get a() { return 1 }, b: undefined }, { c: 3, a: 1 }, false) flips from true to false. Fix: add a regression test for the loose Bun.deepEquals and assert.deepEqual entry points alongside the toEqual tests, covering an extra key that enumerates before the shared keys, and correct the description.
Why this was flagged
src/js/node/assert.ts:53 implements loose deepEqual as Bun.deepEquals(a, b, false), which bindings.cpp:3353 routes to deepEqualsWrapperImpl<false, false, false>. In that instantiation the new tail at bindings.cpp:1356-1402 replaces the old positional loop (for (; i < propertyArrayLength2; i++) over a2[i]) with a by-name walk of a2 and a getPropertySlot probe of o1. For Bun.deepEquals({ get a() { return 1 }, b: undefined }, { c: 3, a: 1 }, false) the base returns true (a1 = [a, b], a2 = [c, a]; the tail starts at i = 2 and never visits c); the new code returns false at bindings.cpp:1400. This is a correct fix, but the only tests added are in test/js/bun/test/expect.test.js under toEqual, which exercise the <false, true, false> instantiation; the repository review rules require every behavioural change and every sibling entry point receiving the fix to ship an automated test in the same PR, and the PR description states the node assert.deepEqual path is untouched, which the code contradicts.
Verification: nit. Trigger: Bun.deepEquals(a, b, false) (and assert.deepEqual) on objects that miss the structure fast path. The new tail at bindings.cpp:1356 is guarded only by if constexpr (!isStrict), so it is compiled into the <false,false,false> instantiation. That changes results for non-matcher inputs on this path. None of the 14 new tests exercises Bun.deepEquals or node:assert.

🔴 When the received value is a Proxy whose has trap answers true for names it does not own, toEqual now passes with extra keys on expected that base and Jest reject. The a2 walk decides "already compared" from a HasProperty chain probe at bindings.cpp:1366-1369, and a Proxy has hit reports non-DontEnum attributes, so the extra name is skipped and its value never read. Fix: treat a name as compared only when it is in a1 (build a name set from a1 once) and run the existing own/matcher/mismatch checks on every other name, in both the generic walk and the Error walk at bindings.cpp:1747-1751, so presence is never inferred from a HasProperty probe.
Why this was flagged
Input: received = new Proxy({ a: 1 }, { has: () => true }), expected = { a: 1, b: 2 }, through expect(received).toEqual(expected). A Proxy overrides getOwnPropertySlot so the structure fast path at bindings.cpp:1123 is skipped. a1 is built from the proxy's ownKeys at bindings.cpp:1290 = ['a']; a2 = ['a', 'b']. The first loop compares a. In the new a2 walk, j = 1 is 'b': bindings.cpp:1366 calls o1->getPropertySlot with InternalMethodType::HasProperty, which for a ProxyObject runs the has trap and on true sets the slot with PropertyAttribute::None; has1 is true and the DontEnum test at bindings.cpp:1368 fails, so the loop continues without reading expected's 'b' and the function returns true at bindings.cpp:1403. On the base branch the trailing loop at i = 1 reads o2->getIfPropertyExists('b') = 2, which is not undefined, and returns false; Jest's eq uses hasOwnProperty for hasKey so 'b' is counted as missing and the key counts differ, returning false. No later check reads prop2 for a name that took the continue at bindings.cpp:1369.
Verification: Triggered when received is a Proxy whose [[HasProperty]] answers true for a name its own-keys enumeration does not report, and expected carries an extra non-matcher key at that name. At bindings.cpp:1366 the HasProperty probe runs the has trap, so :1368 is true and the loop continues; 'b' is never read from o2 and :1403 returns true where base returned false.
