Node calls options.checkServerIdentity(hostname, cert) as a method of the options object that tls.connect() builds. onClientHandshake destructured the callback and called it with no receiver, so `this` was undefined in strict mode and globalThis in sloppy mode. A sloppy mode callback that guards on `this.pin` skipped its check and accepted a wrong pin. The receiver is now the connect options of the socket. https and http2 clients get their socket from tls.connect() and reach the same call.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Beyond the inline findings, I also checked whether the receiver at src/js/node/net.ts:541 can be undefined: all three paths that start a TLS handshake (Socket#connect, the single-address connect, and the autoSelectFamily path via context.options) store kConnectOptions before the handshake, so $call never falls back to the bare-call behavior on the tls.connect() route.
Extended reasoning...
One-line change in src/js/node/net.ts invoking the user checkServerIdentity callback with the connect options as the receiver, plus 174 lines of new tests; it touches the TLS identity-verification path, which is security-sensitive. Two confirmed inline findings (receiver mismatch on the new tls.TLSSocket(opts).connect() path and Node's post-callback rejectUnauthorized read not being mirrored) already signal that a human should weigh the change; this note only records the undefined-receiver concern that was ruled out.
Findings marked 🟡 are optional suggestions and need no follow-up push.

🟡
src/js/node/net.ts— A callback written for Node that setsthis.rejectUnauthorized = true(or false) inside checkServerIdentity is now silently ignored by Bun, where on the base branch it threw and was visible. Node readsoptions.rejectUnauthorizedafter the callback returns (wrap.js:1676), so a callback can escalate a pin mismatch into a refusal on a socket created with rejectUnauthorized:false. Bun decides at src/js/node/net.ts:545 and net.ts:549 fromself._rejectUnauthorized, which the receiver write never touches, so the socket stays open and emits secureConnect with authorized=false. Fix: readoptions.rejectUnauthorizedfrom the same receiver object after the callback at net.ts:545/549, matching Node, or document that the receiver is read-only.Why this was flagged
The change hands the connect options as
thisat net.ts:541, which makes Node-style receiver mutation reachable for the first time: on basethiswas undefined so anythis.rejectUnauthorized = ...threw a TypeError and reached reportError at net.ts:574. Now the write lands on the options copy from tls.ts:1642 and nothing reads it back. Node's onConnectSecure checksoptions.rejectUnauthorizedafteroptions.checkServerIdentity(...)returns (https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/v26.3.0/lib/internal/tls/wrap.js#L1676), so a callback that returns an Error and setsthis.rejectUnauthorized = trueon a rejectUnauthorized:false socket gets a destroy() on Node. Bun evaluatesself._rejectUnauthorizedat net.ts:545 and again at net.ts:549, values fixed at connect time by applyRejectUnauthorized, so the same callback yields secureConnect with authorized=false and a live, writable socket. Population: any code ported from Node that relied on the receiver being the live options object; the dismissal called it pre-existing, but the receiver was unusable before this PR so the divergence is…Verification: nit — acknowledged in diff: the PR description itself states "
this.rejectUnauthorized = falseinside the callback does not relax the verdict. Bun reads the value it took at connect time. Node reads the receiver after the callback." The note is accurate but only names the relaxing direction; the escalating direction (rejectUnauthorized:false socket + callback sets `this.rejectUnauthorized =…
After TLSSocket#connect() the callback can come from the constructor options, which Bun did not keep. With the options of connect() as `this`, a strict mode callback that guards on `this.pin` read no pin and accepted every certificate, where it threw before. Node runs no identity check on these orders. The receiver is now the connect options when they own the callback. That is every socket from tls.connect(). In the other case `this` is undefined, as it was.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.
Commit 2c29e6d addresses the TLSSocket#connect() fail-open I raised earlier: with the receiver gated on $getByIdDirect(options, "checkServerIdentity") === checkServerIdentity, that path gets this === undefined again, same as the base branch. Beyond the inline finding, I also checked that options at src/js/node/net.ts:542 is always an object (all three kConnectOptions writers take the output of normalizeArgs, which never yields a primitive) and that the tls.ts:1642 copy owns the callback, so tls.connect/https/http2 always hit the options branch. One nit: the PR description's "Considered" and "Downsides" bullets still describe the pre-2c29e6d1 behavior (this being the connect() options after new tls.TLSSocket(options).connect()), which the code and the second describe block now contradict.
Extended reasoning...
The change is five lines in onClientHandshake (src/js/node/net.ts:541-545), a TLS security gate, plus two new node:test describe blocks; the second commit reverted the unconditional receiver to one gated on own-property identity, which restores base-branch behavior on the constructor-options path. Since it touches certificate verification, a human look is still warranted despite the small size.
The helpers waited for 'secureConnect' or 'error' only. A socket that closes with no error left a case pending until the time limit of the runner.

I re-reviewed the latest push and found no bugs; the two points raised on earlier versions are addressed by the ownership condition in src/js/node/net.ts:541-544 and by the close-settling helpers in the test. Because this changes how the certificate-identity callback runs in the TLS client handshake, a human maintainer's look is still worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
- All three
kConnectOptionsassignment sites (Socket.prototype.connect,internalConnect,internalConnectMultiple) store the same object whosecheckServerIdentityis copied intobunTLSConnectOptions, so the own-property identity check picks the right receiver on every path;normalizeArgsalways yields a non-null object, so$getByIdDirectnever sees a primitive. tls.connect()buildsconnectOptionswithcheckServerIdentityas an own key, sohttps.request/http2.connectget the copy asthis, matching Node; the constructor-owned callback afterTLSSocket#connect()still getsundefined, so athis.pinguard cannot fall open.- This is the only call site of the callback under
src/js/; no sibling was missed.
Extended reasoning...
The diff replaces a bare checkServerIdentity(hostname, cert) call in onClientHandshake (src/js/node/net.ts) with .$call(receiver, ...), where the receiver is the connect-options object only when its own checkServerIdentity property is the function being run, and adds ~215 lines of node:test cases covering tls.connect, https, http2, session resumption and TLSSocket#connect orders. It touches the TLS client certificate-identity verification path, which decides whether a peer certificate is accepted, so it is security-sensitive even though the production change is five lines. Both inline findings from earlier runs were addressed by commits 2c29e6d and f0b350c, no third-party objections are outstanding, and no CODEOWNERS entry covers the changed files. The small size and consistent option-ownership across all three connect paths argue for correctness; the security-sensitive surface and the inability to run the tests here (no local build, test execution not permitted) are why this is a defer rather than an approve.
The 'error' listener of eventOf() stayed on the emitter after the event came. An error after that was taken by the listener and was lost.

I re-reviewed the latest push and found no bugs; the two points I raised earlier (the pin guard falling open after TLSSocket#connect(), and the helpers hanging on close) are addressed in the code by 2c29e6d and f0b350c. Because this changes how the TLS identity-check callback is invoked, a human look is still worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
- The receiver condition at src/js/node/net.ts:541-545:
kConnectOptionsis always the object fromnormalizeArgs(or the tls.connect copy that owns the callback), so$getByIdDirectnever sees a non-object, and{ checkServerIdentity: undefined }on connect options correctly yields an undefined receiver. - The three assignment sites of
kConnectOptions/bunTLSConnectOptions(net.ts:2170-2194, 3326-3337, 3477-3488) all pair the same way, so no order reaches the handshake with one set and not the other. - The new assertions are live on the unfixed code: an undefined receiver produces
pin: undefined, ownsCallback: false, which failsdeepStrictEqualagainstconnectOptions(...). - Ruled out: the resumed-session test can leak its first socket if 'session' never fires — only on an already-failing run, so a nit at most.
Extended reasoning...
The diff touches one function in src/js/node/net.ts (onClientHandshake), computing a receiver for the user-supplied checkServerIdentity callback and invoking it via $call, plus about 225 lines of new tests in test/js/node/tls/node-tls-connect-hostname-verification.test.ts. This is a TLS certificate-identity verification path, so it is security-sensitive by the approval guidelines even though the change is small and its semantics (own-property check against the function that runs, undefined otherwise) are sound. Both of my prior inline findings are addressed in the code rather than only author-resolved, and the final commit changes only test listener cleanup. No local build was available to execute the suite, so the fail-before property was checked by reading the assertions. The security-sensitive surface and the deliberate divergences from Node (running the check on resumed sessions and after TLSSocket#connect()) are what decided defer over approve.
