What does this PR do?

Per-connection TLS state moves from SSL ex_data slots to the owner of the connection. Native clients check the server name inside the handshake.

main this PR
ex_data slots on each SSL 11 2
sizeof(us_socket_t) 80 80
State Home
inline reject, verify failed, name rejected, SNI pending, SNI resolver bits on us_socket_t, in the existing padding
parked sessions and keylog lines the rare struct
latest session for getSession() the TLSSocket
SSLWrapper state fields on the wrapper. One slot points the SSL at its wrapper.
listener, renegotiation count, fetch session sink the rare struct, the other slot
resolved SNI context the loop, for one re-drive

BoringSSL callbacks find the owner of the SSL and go through the kind dispatch.

Behavior changes

Each connection has one server name check.

Client Acts like Before After
fetch, WebSocket, Bun.connect, Bun.RedisClient, Bun.SQL curl, Go checked after the handshake checked inside the handshake, as a step of certificate verification
node:tls, node:net, fetch with a checkServerIdentity function Node checked after the handshake, in JS no change
Case Before After
A resumed session checked after the handshake no change. There is no verify step to check in.
setVerifyMode(_, true) on a client before the handshake is done the chain is checked after the handshake the chain is checked inside the handshake

The error code and message for a wrong name do not change. A connection that was accepted before is still accepted.

How did you verify your code works?

bun bd test <file> on a debug + ASAN build, macOS arm64:

Suite Result
tls-reject-before-client-cert.test.ts 110 pass, 9 skip
renegotiation.test.ts 21 pass
node-tls-connect, node-tls-server, node-tls-upgrade 155 pass
fetch.tls.test.ts 41 pass
proxy.test.ts, websocket-proxy.test.ts 131 pass

bun run rust:check-all passes for Windows and Linux. Not run locally: Postgres and MySQL TLS tests, Windows tests.

Supersedes #43841.

…_data

openssl.c kept 11 ex_data slots on each SSL. Every TLS feature added one
more slot, a free callback, and call sites to keep the slot in step.

- The flags are bits on us_socket_t, in the padding that was there.
- SSLWrapper keeps its own state in Rust.
- BoringSSL callbacks find the owner and go through the kind dispatch.
- Parked sessions and keylog lines are one queue on the loop.
- One slot stays: the listener, the renegotiation count and fetch's
  session sink.

The server name check of a client now also runs right before its
certificate goes out. The callback asks the owner for the verdict, so
no host name is copied and nothing must be kept in step.

Walkthrough

The change updates uSockets and Rust TLS callback handling, retains TLS sessions, and adds peer identity checks across TLS clients. It also adds hostname-rejection and renegotiation tests.

Changes

TLS callback and identity flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Socket TLS state and event dispatch
packages/bun-usockets/src/internal/internal.h, packages/bun-usockets/src/libusockets.h, packages/bun-usockets/src/crypto/openssl.c, packages/bun-usockets/src/context.c
uSockets stores TLS state in socket fields, rare SSL state, and loop data. It queues callback events and adds socket-level session-sink APIs.
Rust SSL callback engine and session lifecycle
src/uws/lib.rs, src/http/session_cache.rs, src/http/HTTPContext.rs, src/http/lib.rs, src/runtime/socket/socket_body.rs, src/runtime/socket/tls_socket_functions.rs, src/runtime/socket/uws_dispatch.rs, src/runtime/socket/Listener.rs, src/runtime/node/node_net_binding.rs, src/uws_sys/*, src/runtime/socket/UpgradedDuplex.rs, src/runtime/socket/WindowsNamedPipe.rs
SSLWrapper records verification and identity results, queues callback events, and retains sessions. Socket and wrapper sessions are exposed to session lookup. HTTP session-cache callbacks use socket-level sink ownership.
Peer identity checks and handshake rejection
src/boringssl/lib.rs, src/http/*, src/http_jsc/websocket_client/*, src/runtime/socket/*, src/runtime/valkey_jsc/js_valkey.rs, src/sql_jsc/*, src/uws_sys/lib.rs, src/uws_sys/socket.rs, src/runtime/webcore/fetch/FetchTasklet.rs
TLS clients select hostnames for certificate identity checks. Hostname mismatches map to ERR_TLS_CERT_ALTNAME_INVALID, and identity rejection affects handshake handling.
Hostname rejection and renegotiation tests
test/js/bun/net/tls-reject-before-client-cert.test.ts, test/js/node/tls/*
Tests cover hostname mismatch rejection across TLS clients and client-certificate behavior during renegotiation.

Suggested reviewers: robobun, cirospaciari

Priority: ➖ Normal

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7b5e9

The TLS state refactor keeps hostname verification intact for all inspected clients. One remaining edge case is a single encrypted write larger than about 2 GB on a wrapper-based TLS socket, which would crash the process instead of performing a partial write. This is a small fix and is reasonable to address before or shortly after merge.

- Parked sessions and keylog lines were one list on the loop. Each park
  and each flush walked the entries of every socket. They are now a list
  with a tail pointer on the socket's own state.
- The listener cleanup walks its accept group only. A socket that is
  adopted into another group now drops its listener pointer.

SSLWrapper found its state through a thread-local that was set around
each SSL_* call. A call without the guard lost its callbacks. The
wrapper state is now boxed, and the SSL holds a pointer to it.

🟡 Minor · Limit the SSL_write length instead of panicking on large writes. · lib.rs:857-863

src/uws/lib.rs:857-863
🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Limit the SSL_write length instead of panicking on large writes.

write_data takes caller plaintext of any length. c_int::try_from(data.len()).expect("int cast") panics when data.len() is more than i32::MAX bytes. A Buffer that large can reach this path through a duplex or named-pipe TLS socket, and the panic ends the process. write_data already returns the number of bytes written, and callers handle partial writes. Pass at most c_int::MAX bytes to SSL_write and let the caller write the rest.

🐛 Proposed fix
             // SAFETY: ssl is a live SSL*; data is a valid &[u8] for len bytes.
             let written = unsafe {
                 boring_sys::SSL_write(
                     ssl.as_ptr(),
                     data.as_ptr().cast::<c_void>(),
-                    c_int::try_from(data.len()).expect("int cast"),
+                    c_int::try_from(data.len()).unwrap_or(c_int::MAX),
                 )
             };

As per coding guidelines: "Don't .unwrap() a fallible path that user input or the OS can hit at runtime — return the error."

- adopt is generic over IS_SSL, but only one statement uses it. The
  rest moves to adopt_owner.
- SSLWrapper::write_data passes at most c_int::MAX bytes to SSL_write.
  It no longer panics on a larger buffer. Callers already handle a

- fetch, WebSocket, Bun.connect, Bun.RedisClient and Bun.SQL check the
  server name as a step of certificate verification, like curl and Go.
- node:tls, node:net and a fetch with a checkServerIdentity function
  are not changed. JS checks the name after the handshake.
- The check after the handshake only runs when the verify step did
  not. That is the case on a resumed session.
- A wrong name is X509_V_ERR_HOSTNAME_MISMATCH in the verify result.
  The certificate callback and its own error path are gone.
checkHost took the matched name from Rust as a raw buffer from the
allocator hook, and freed it with OPENSSL_free. In a build where
BoringSSL does not use the hooks, OPENSSL_free read a size prefix that
was not there. Rust now writes a Bun string, so neither side frees a
buffer of the other side.

The name is now checked in the verify step of the first handshake,
before the client sends its Finished. A renegotiation cannot start
before that, so the test never reached one. The close path goes back
to what main does.

…ocket-tls-servername-check-identity

main now asks the owner of a TLS client for the name check inside the
handshake (#43863). For the WebSocket client that question goes to the
same owner-level decision as the verdict after the handshake:
CppWebSocket::server_identity runs the built-in check when it decides,
and answers Unchecked when tls.checkServerIdentity decides, so the
callback still owns the name. The upgrade client and the tunnel only
pass the peer and the name.

Conflicts: WebSocketUpgradeClient.rs (handle_handshake, server_identity,
identity_hostname) and WebSocketProxyTunnel.rs (on_handshake).

…r end() (#44290)

Regression from #42181 (in no release). Merge before 1.4.3 is tagged,
and before #43957 and #43962.

### Problem
- After `end()` during its handshake, a node:tls client accepts a
trusted certificate for another name: no error, and it reads the
server's data. Node and Bun 1.4.2 report `ERR_TLS_CERT_ALTNAME_INVALID`.
- `on_handshake` (`src/runtime/socket/socket_body.rs`) passed its name
verdict to the handler as the success flag. After `end()`,
`onClientHandshake` (`src/js/node/net.ts:496`) reads a failure with no
error as the client's own close and skips `checkServerIdentity`.

### Fix
- `on_handshake` no longer runs the native name check for a node:tls
socket. The handler's flag is the handshake result.
- `Bun.connect` and `upgradeTLS` sockets do not change.
- Verified: `node-tls-duplex-end-verify.test.ts`, 19 new tests. `main`
fails 18. Node v26.3.0 passes 49, skips 1.
- Self-reviewed: 10 concerns raised, 10 addressed. One is #44422
(`onClientHandshake` reads some failed handshakes as established).

### Background
- node:tls checks the name in JS (`checkServerIdentity`), on sockets
that `DEFERS_SERVER_IDENTITY` marks. The native check ran for them:
another name gave `(false, null)`, like a handshake that fails after
this side's FIN.
- Considered a `getAuthorizationError()` test in the guard, or a second
flag variable: both keep an unused native check.

### Downsides
- Needs a maintainer's yes: the internal `socket._handle.authorized` and
`getAuthorizationError()` of a node:tls client drop the name check (no
reader in `src/js` or `test`). The public values do not change.
- Still open (#43957): only the first such connection of a process
reports if its server keeps its side open.

<details><summary>Notes</summary>

**The regression** (`tls.connect({ socket })` on a connected socket,
then `end()`. Trusted chain, certificate for another name, server in the
same process, 3 runs each)

| Runtime | Output |
|---|---|
| Node v26.3.0 | `finish, error ERR_TLS_CERT_ALTNAME_INVALID, close` |
| Bun 1.4.2 (744846f) | `error ERR_TLS_CERT_ALTNAME_INVALID, close` |
| Bun 1.3.13 | `end, finish, error ECONNRESET, close` |
| canary 1.4.3-canary.1 (367d939, has #42181) | `finish, end, close`,
no error |
| this PR | `finish, error ERR_TLS_CERT_ALTNAME_INVALID, close` |

- #42181 (44e51b7) is on `main` and is not an ancestor of the tag
`bun-v1.4.2`. The client handler at that tag has no such guard.

**Merge order, and why**

- This PR first. Both later PRs let more handshakes complete after
`end()`, and on `main` each of those accepts a certificate for another
name.
- #43957 removes the engine defect that today keeps the second and later
connections of a process from completing such a handshake. Merged before
this PR, it turns one silently accepted connection into all of them.
Measured with five connections in one process (`tls.connect({ socket
})`, another name, server keeps its side open): on `main` 1 of 5
handshakes completes, and the client reports no error for it. On `main`
with the source change of #43957, 5 of 5 complete with no error.
- #43962 sends a client's FIN after its ClientHello. It contains this
PR's commits.
- With #43957 only the test file conflicts: both PRs insert a block.
Keep both.

**Where the native check came from**

- #31339 added the native name check for all clients.
- #32359 proposed to remove it and was closed for #33755. #33755 added
`DEFERS_SERVER_IDENTITY`: the check stayed enforced for `Bun.connect`,
and for node:tls it was computed but not enforced. It took node:tls
sockets out of `reject_unauthorized` and out of the error argument.
- #42181 then added the guard for "failed after our own FIN", which is
the same pair as "computed, another name".
- #43863 says "Each connection has one server name check", and lists
node:tls as "checked after the handshake, in JS".
- This PR is the node:tls half of #32359. It does not touch the check
for `Bun.connect`.
- #43865, #43924 and #43947 are the fixes of the chain check in the same
test file.

**What the client handler gets from the fd engine**
(`packages/bun-usockets/src/crypto/openssl.c`)

`on_handshake` calls the handler with `(socket, flag, error)`. For a
node:tls client:

| Case | Before | Now |
|---|---|---|
| Handshake completed, chain and name good | `true, null` | `true, null`
|
| Handshake completed, chain good, another name | `false, null` | `true,
null` |
| Handshake completed, chain bad | `true, X509 error` | `true, X509
error` |
| Chain refused inside the handshake | `false, X509 error` | `false,
X509 error` |
| Handshake failed after this side's FIN | `false, null` | `false, null`
|
| Handshake failed with a TLS reason | `false, EPROTO` | `false, EPROTO`
|
| The peer closed before the handshake finished | `false, ECONNRESET` |
`false, ECONNRESET` |

- Row 2 and row 5 were the same pair. The guard that #42181 added for
row 5 also caught row 2 once the client had ended.
- With no `end()`, row 2 already reached `checkServerIdentity`, because
the guard tests `writableFinished`. So a client that does not end
behaves as before.
- `Bun.connect` and `upgradeTLS` sockets do not carry
`DEFERS_SERVER_IDENTITY`. Their flag is `authorized`, as documented.

**Rows that this PR does not change**

The engine for a Duplex, a named pipe and TLS inside TLS (`SSLWrapper`,
`src/uws/lib.rs`) reports no TLS reason. A failed handshake arrives as
`(false, null)` after a verified chain and as `(false, X509 code)`
otherwise. `onClientHandshake` reads both as an established session
unless the client rejects the code. Measured on this PR with a client
over a Duplex that does not call `end()`:

| The peer answers the ClientHello with | `rejectUnauthorized` | `main`,
Bun 1.4.2 and this PR | Node v26.3.0 |
|---|---|---|---|
| a fatal `handshake_failure` alert | `true` | `error
UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT, close` | `error
ERR_SSL_SSL/TLS_ALERT_HANDSHAKE_FAILURE, close` |
| a fatal `handshake_failure` alert | `false` | `secureConnect
authorized=false authError=UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT`, `end` | `error
ERR_SSL_SSL/TLS_ALERT_HANDSHAKE_FAILURE, close` |
| bytes that are not TLS | `false` | `secureConnect authorized=false
authError=UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT`, `end` | `error
ERR_SSL_WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER, close` |
| a `close_notify` alert | either | no event | `end, error ECONNRESET,
close` |

- These rows are older than this PR: Bun 1.4.2 prints them too. The
native socket is marked unusable after a failed handshake
(`transport_unusable` in `on_handshake`).
- Owners: #32929 (the engine reports the fatal alert over a Duplex),
#44223 and #44021 (a refused renegotiation).
- #44422 makes a handshake that did not complete terminal in
`onClientHandshake`, as it is in the server handler. This PR is the step
before it: while `(false, null)` could be a completed handshake, that
arm could not go. It stays out of this PR so that this PR can land, or
be reverted, alone.

**What the native handle of a node:tls client reports** (trusted chain,
another name, `rejectUnauthorized: false`, measured)

- The native check for these sockets had three effects on `main`: the
flag in row 2 above, and the two internal values.
- The in-handshake check (`server_identity`) already left node:tls
sockets out. Both sites now agree.
- `Flags::HOSTNAME_MISMATCH` has no reader on `main`. This PR does not
remove it.
- The hunk that stops the native check came from an optional finding of
an automated review. No person has reviewed it yet.

**Measured** (Linux x64, debug builds, Node v26.3.0, server in its own
Node process, 40 s watchdog)

`tls.connect({ socket })` on a connected socket, then `end()`. The chain
is trusted, the certificate is for another name, `rejectUnauthorized:
true`:

| Server | TLS | Node | `main` (d115f54) | This PR |

- `end()` in the same tick and `end()` one `setImmediate` later give the
same lines.
- In the new tests the handshake completes after the client's `end()`
under TLS 1.2 and over a Duplex as well. There `main` delivers
`secret-banner` to a client with `rejectUnauthorized: true`.
- A client that passes its own `checkServerIdentity` is asked: one test
asserts the name that it gets, and `authorized=true` when it accepts.

**Still open, the engine**

- Each line of the table above is the first connection of its process.
Five such connections, one after the other in one process, against a
server that keeps its side open: with this PR the first reports and the
other four print `finish` only. `main` does the same when the name is
good. The flight that the first socket seals after its FIN takes the
event loop's one spill slot and never leaves it. #43957 is open for
that.
- `tls.connect(port)` followed at once by `end()` still sends its FIN
before its ClientHello, so no handshake runs there. #43962 changes that
order.
- #43957 is open for the spill slot. Measured with its source change on
this PR: all five connections report, for another name and for a good
name.
- A handshake that fails after `end()` with no certificate still reports
nothing. The tests of #42181 and #43947 for that case pass.

**Tests**

- 19 new tests against `main`: the name check after `end()` over a
Duplex, over TCP behind a record proxy (TLS 1.2 and 1.3) and on a
connected `net.Socket` (3 each), `end()` and `end("")` in the turn of
`tls.connect()` over a socket that is still connecting and over a Duplex
(6), and a resumed session (1, Bun only).
- 7 of them are the commit of another branch
(`robobun/baba0385/tls-early-end-hostname-check`), taken as it is. The
resumed-session test now asserts `isSessionReused()`.
- `main` (4b02e10) fails 18 of the 19. The one that passes is
`end("")` over a Duplex.

**Suites** (this machine ran at a load average of 200 to 800)

- On this head: `node-tls-duplex-end-verify` (50 of 50),
`node-tls-connect` (121), `tls-reject-before-client-cert` (121),
`node-https-agent-checkserveridentity-reuse` (30), `renegotiation` (21),
`node-tls-wrapped-socket-close` (15),
`node-tls-connect-hostname-verification` (11), `node-tls-upgrade` (5),
`node-tls-raw-end` (4), `node-https-checkServerIdentity` (4).
- On the head before the rebase: 14 vendored Node tests that use
`checkServerIdentity` or the name error, `fetch.tls` (61).
`socket.test.ts`, `node-tls-cert` and `node-tls-server` had only
failures that `main` has on this machine too (timeouts of child
processes, and one test that needs `www.example.com`).
- Not run on this machine: macOS, Windows.
