Convert scope-object receivers in the chaining functions and inspect.custom fallbacks

[robobun]

What does this PR do?

Found by fuzzing (bun fuzzilli, fingerprint 3e01338eb67e0977). This is the remaining part of the fix for that class of crash. The mock functions themselves were converted in #39509, StringDecoder, fs.Stats, Node-API and the V8 shim in #39525. This PR covers the sites those two left out: the chaining functions and the inspect.custom fallbacks.

When a function is called through a binding that lives in a scope object rather than a stack slot (a variable closed over by another function, a module-level binding, an eval binding), JSC passes that scope object as the raw this value of the call (FunctionCallResolveNode::emitBytecode). JS callees fix this up in op_to_this; native functions are expected to call JSValue::toThis(), which maps any JSScope to undefined/globalThis.

The functions that return their receiver did not do that, so a bare call handed a JSLexicalEnvironment or JSModuleEnvironment back to user code:

• setSystemTime and the seven fake timer functions on jest/vi (useFakeTimers, useRealTimers, advanceTimersByTime, advanceTimersToNextTimer, runOnlyPendingTimers, runAllTimers, clearAllTimers)
• the plugin builder's onLoad, onResolve and module
• the 16 native [util.inspect.custom] functions (web streams, URL, URLSearchParams, CryptoKey), which return a receiver that is not an instance of their class unchanged

import { setSystemTime } from "bun:test";
console.log(setSystemTime()); // [native code: JSModuleEnvironment]

Property reads on such an object go through symbolTableGet, which returns the raw slot contents. For a binding still in its TDZ that is an empty JSValue, which is a null cell as far as the rest of the engine is concerned, so typeof scope.x dereferences null (UBSAN: member call on null pointer of type 'JSC::JSCell'), and Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(scope, "x") trips ASSERTION FAILED: value in PropertyDescriptor::setDescriptor. The fuzzer reached this through mockReturnThis() (fixed in #39509); every function listed above gives user code the same object.

The fix converts the receiver with toThis(globalObject, ECMAMode::strict()) at each site. The Rust sites in FakeTimers.rs go through a new JSValue::to_this_strict, a thin wrapper over the same call exported from bindings.cpp. Strict mode maps scope objects (including the global object itself, which is also a JSScope) to undefined and leaves every other value, primitives included, untouched, so:

• a bare call now returns undefined, the same thing a call through a local variable already returned
• jest.setSystemTime(), jest.useFakeTimers(), build.onLoad(...) and the rest still return their receiver for chaining
• the inspect.custom functions keep returning ordinary wrong receivers as-is (util.inspect relies on that to fall back to default formatting, see the existing test in custom-inspect.test.js); only scope objects now come back as undefined

The other return this sites I found (JSECDHPrototype.cpp, DiffieHellmanFunctions.h, and the Rust class methods in Image.rs, cron.rs, html_rewriter.rs, quic/stream.rs, TimeoutObject.rs) throw when the receiver is not an instance of their class, or run behind a generated binding that does, so a scope object cannot reach their return statement. They are left alone.

The webcore and webcrypto files touched here are checked-in sources, not build output: nothing in the tree regenerates them (the generate-bindings.pl banner on three of them is a leftover from their import from WebKit), and the inspect.custom functions were added to them by hand in #34660 and #34431.

How did you verify your code works?

• bun bd test on test/js/bun/test/test-timers.test.ts, test/js/bun/plugin/plugins.test.ts and test/js/bun/util/inspect.test.js passes (together with mock-fn.test.js: 214 tests). Each new test fails on an unfixed release build (1.3.14): the bare calls return [native code] entries where undefined is expected, for all 8 timer functions, all 3 builder methods and all 16 inspect.custom functions. The method-call halves of the same tests check that the receiver is still returned.
• custom-inspect.test.js, globals.test.js, the URL and URLSearchParams tests, and node's test-webstream-encoding-inspect, test-whatwg-webstreams-coverage and test-whatwg-url-custom-inspect still pass.
• Rebased onto main after bun:test: convert scope receivers to undefined in mock host functions #39509 and Convert scope-object receivers in StringDecoder, node error toString, fs.Stats, Node-API and V8 callbacks #39525 landed. The only overlap was the jsMockFunctionCall line, which is now main's; the test this PR had for it is dropped in favor of the one bun:test: convert scope receivers to undefined in mock host functions #39509 added.

[claude]

LGTM — the two-line toThis(…, ECMAMode::strict()) normalization is the standard JSC idiom for this, and both new tests assert the exact value semantics that fail on the unfixed build. The inline nit about sibling frame.this() sites in FakeTimers.rs / BunPlugin.cpp is a scope-of-fix suggestion, not a regression introduced here, and doesn't block.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

Two production lines changed in src/jsc/bindings/JSMockFunction.cpp: jsMockFunctionCall and JSMock__jsSetSystemTime now pass callframe->thisValue() through .toThis(globalObject, ECMAMode::strict()) before using it. Two tests added — one in mock-fn.test.js forcing a closed-over binding so the raw receiver is a JSLexicalEnvironment, one in test-timers.test.ts covering both jest.setSystemTime() (receiver preserved) and bare imported setSystemTime() (module scope → undefined).

Security risks

None. This is test-runner-only surface (bun:test). The fix removes a way for user code to obtain a JSC-internal scope object and dereference TDZ slots through it, which was the fuzzer crash.

Level of scrutiny

Low-to-medium. The change is a textbook JSC pattern: native host functions that expose or forward thisValue must normalize it via toThis, since JSC passes the resolving scope object as the raw receiver for calls through environment-record bindings. In strict mode toThis maps any JSScope to undefined and is otherwise the identity (including on primitives), so obj.fn(), fn.call(x), and construct calls are unaffected — matching what the existing .call/.apply/.bind and "passes this value" tests in the same file already assert. Strict-mode toThis cannot throw (no boxing, no user-code entry), so the absence of a RETURN_IF_EXCEPTION after either new call is correct; JSMock__jsSetSystemTime has no throw scope and doesn't need one.

Other factors

The one finding is a nit about sibling raw-thisValue() sites on the same jest object (seven Ok(frame.this()) returns in FakeTimers.rs) and three in BunPlugin.cpp. Those are pre-existing and unchanged by this PR; extending the fix there is a reasonable follow-up but not a merge blocker. The added import { expect, jest, setSystemTime, test } in test-timers.test.ts is needed so the bare setSystemTime binding resolves through the module environment, which is exactly the case under test. PR description documents the mechanism, cites the JSC bytecode emitter path, and confirms the tests fail on the release build with [native code: JSLexicalEnvironment] / [native code: JSModuleEnvironment].

[robobun]

Follow-up on the review notes:

• The sibling sites from the review are now covered (7bf32c2): the seven fake timer functions in FakeTimers.rs (via a small JSValue::to_this_strict wrapper over the same JSC call) and the three plugin builder functions in BunPlugin.cpp, each with a test that fails on the current build. The remaining return-this sites (JSECDHPrototype.cpp and the Rust class methods) downcast the receiver first, so they are unaffected; the PR description now says so.
• The doc comment flagged on JSValue.rs is trimmed to one line (927f6e7).
• The CodeRabbit notices above are rate limit messages only.

CI for the current head is build 98717. The failures on the first build (98653) were all retries that passed and none touched the changed code.

[robobun]

Rebased onto current main (no changes to the diff itself); CI is now running as build 98732. The CodeRabbit comment above is still only its rate limit notice, nothing to act on there.

[claude]

LGTM — the sibling sites flagged in the previous round (seven FakeTimers.rs host functions and three BunPlugin.cpp builder methods) are now covered via the new to_this_strict wrapper, each with a test that fails on the unfixed build, and the doc comment was trimmed. The remaining inline note about the webcore/webcrypto [util.inspect.custom] fallthrough sites is pre-existing and out of this PR's subsystem; a follow-up (or a description note) is fine.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

Normalizes the raw callframe->thisValue() to toThis(globalObject, ECMAMode::strict()) at every site that hands the receiver back to user code without first downcasting it: jsMockFunctionCall (recorded in mock.contexts and returned by mockReturnThis), JSMock__jsSetSystemTime, the three plugin builder chainable methods in BunPlugin.cpp, and the seven fake-timer host functions in FakeTimers.rs. The Rust sites go through a new 4-line JSValue::to_this_strict wrapping a new [[ZIG_EXPORT(nothrow)]] Bun__JSValue__toThisStrict in bindings.cpp. Three new tests exercise the closed-over-binding path and the method-call path for each cluster.

Security risks

None. The change strictly narrows what native code returns to script (JSC-internal JSScope objects become undefined), closing a fuzzer-found path to a null-cell deref. No auth, crypto, or filesystem surface.

Level of scrutiny

Medium. Twelve one-token edits at return sites plus a thin FFI shim. toThis in strict mode is nothrow (scope objects → undefined, everything else — plain objects, the JSGlobalProxy, primitives, newTarget in the construct case — passes through unchanged), so the nothrow export annotation is correct and no new RETURN_IF_EXCEPTION is needed. I checked that jest.useFakeTimers()/jest.setSystemTime()/builder.onLoad(...) still return their receiver (covered by the new tests and by the existing expect(chainedThis).toBe(builder) in plugins.test.ts), and that the existing fn.call(123) tests in mock-fn.test.js are unaffected since strict toThis leaves primitives untouched.

Other factors

This is my second pass. The first pass flagged ten uncovered sibling sites and a long doc comment; both were fixed in follow-up commits and the inline thread is resolved. The one new finding this run — the ~16 webcore/webcrypto [Symbol.for("nodejs.util.inspect.custom")] functions that return the raw receiver on downcast failure — is real but pre-existing, lives in a separate subsystem, and is correctly rated a nit; it does not block merge. The new tests are placed in the existing test files, use the closure-over-const pattern to force a scope-object receiver, restore real timers in finally, and register the plugin handlers under an unused namespace so they don't affect later tests.

[robobun]

Took the inspect.custom sites as well rather than leaving them for a follow-up (abca32d): the same one line change in each of the 16 functions, plus one test in inspect.test.js that calls each of them bare and fails on the current build for all 16. Ordinary wrong receivers are still returned unchanged, so the existing wrong-receiver test in custom-inspect.test.js still passes. DiffieHellmanFunctions.h is now listed in the description with the ECDH sites since it throws on a bad receiver.

[claude]

LGTM — both earlier review rounds are addressed (the seven FakeTimers.rs siblings, three BunPlugin.cpp sites, and now the 16 inspect.custom sites), each with a test that fails on the current build.

What was reviewed:

• toThis(strict) is identity for ordinary receivers and never throws, so jest.useFakeTimers()/builder.onLoad(...) chaining and the inspect.custom wrong-receiver fallback are unchanged; the nothrow on Bun__JSValue__toThisStrict matches existing usage at JSBuffer.cpp:367/2843.
• dynamicDowncast<T>(undefined) is null-safe, so normalizing before the downcast in the inspect.custom functions is fine.
• In jsMockFunctionCall the normalized thisValue also flows to the implementation call and mock.instances; a JS implementation would already have normalized via op_to_this, and new fn()'s receiver is a plain object so it passes through unchanged.
• The excluded return-this sites (ECDH, DiffieHellman, Rust class methods) throw on a non-instance receiver before returning, so a scope object cannot reach them.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

Normalizes the raw callframe->thisValue() with toThis(globalObject, ECMAMode::strict()) at every native site that returns or records its receiver without first validating it: jsMockFunctionCall, JSMock__jsSetSystemTime, the seven fake-timer host functions in FakeTimers.rs (via a new JSValue::to_this_strict wrapper over a new Bun__JSValue__toThisStrict FFI export), the three plugin builder functions in BunPlugin.cpp, and the 16 [util.inspect.custom] functions in webcore/ and webcrypto/. Four test files gain coverage that fails on the current release build.

Security risks

None. The change removes an exposure (a JSC-internal JSLexicalEnvironment/JSModuleEnvironment handed to user code, whose TDZ slots read as empty JSValues → null-cell deref). toThis in strict mode is a pure classification (scope → undefined, everything else identity) with no allocation, coercion, or user-code entry.

Level of scrutiny

Medium. 25 files is broad, but 21 of them receive the identical one-line change and the remaining four are a 3-line FFI wrapper and tests. The pattern already exists verbatim in the codebase (JSBuffer.cpp:367, JSBuffer.cpp:2843 — toThis(strict) immediately followed by dynamicDowncast with no exception check), confirming both the idiom and the nothrow annotation. The webcrypto/streams touch is confined to the inspect.custom failure branch, which by construction only fires on a wrong receiver.

Other factors

This is the third review round; both earlier rounds asked for sibling-site coverage and both were fully addressed with code and tests. The github-actions doc-comment length note was also addressed (the to_this_strict doc comment is one line). The bug hunting system found nothing on the current head. Tests are added to existing files per repo convention, cover both the positive (jest.useFakeTimers() still returns jest; inspectURL.call(new URL(...)) still works) and negative (bare closed-over calls return undefined) contracts, and the PR description enumerates the intentionally-excluded sites with the reason.

[claude]

LGTM — the earlier review rounds' feedback (FakeTimers/BunPlugin siblings, the 16 inspect.custom sites, the doc-comment length, and the plugin builder method-call assertions) is all addressed.

On CodeRabbit's remaining note about editing generated files: the webcore/streams/ files carry no generated-file header and are hand-written; JSDOMURL.cpp/JSURLSearchParams.cpp/JSCryptoKey.cpp have a vestigial WebKit generate-bindings.pl banner, but there is no such generator in this repo, no URLSearchParams.idl/DOMURL.idl, and the _inspectCustom functions themselves were hand-added Bun extensions. These files are routinely hand-edited here, so that concern doesn't apply.

Checked that strict-mode toThis is the same idiom already used without an exception check in JSBuffer.cpp and JSDOMOperation.h, and that the new Bun__JSValue__toThisStrict is correctly nothrow (strict mode never boxes primitives). Also confirmed jsMockFunctionCall normalizes thisValue before it is stored in mock.contexts or passed to the implementation.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

Fuzzer-found fix for a JSC-internal-object leak: native host functions that read callframe->thisValue() raw and return it (or store it in mock.contexts) can hand a JSLexicalEnvironment/JSModuleEnvironment to script when called through a closed-over binding, which lets user code reach TDZ slots and trip a null-cell deref / PropertyDescriptor::setDescriptor assertion. The fix appends .toThis(globalObject, ECMAMode::strict()) at 27 sites across JSMockFunction.cpp (2), BunPlugin.cpp (3), FakeTimers.rs (7, via a new JSValue::to_this_strict wrapper over a new Bun__JSValue__toThisStrict FFI export), and 16 [util.inspect.custom] functions in webcore/ and webcrypto/. Four test files gain coverage for both the bare-call (→ undefined) and method-call (→ receiver) cases.

Security risks

None. This narrows what native functions hand back to JS (scope objects → undefined); no auth, crypto, permissions, or untrusted-input parsing is touched. The pre-existing behavior was the unsafe one.

Level of scrutiny

Medium. Each change is a one-line application of the standard JSC receiver-normalization idiom already used in JSBuffer.cpp:367/2843, JSDOMOperation.h:43, and JSEventTargetCustom.h:75 — none of which follow it with an exception check, because strict-mode toThis maps scope objects to undefined and returns everything else unchanged without running user code or allocating. The new FFI export is correctly annotated [[ZIG_EXPORT(nothrow)]] for the same reason. The breadth (25 files) is entirely from applying the same one-liner to every sibling site, which two earlier review rounds explicitly asked for.

Other factors

• All prior feedback is resolved: my two rounds (FakeTimers/BunPlugin siblings, then the 16 inspect.custom sites), the comment-cop doc-comment length note, and CodeRabbit's request for method-call assertions in the plugin test (ea94f64).
• CodeRabbit's unresolved "generated files" comment is a false positive: no generate-bindings.pl exists in the repo, no URLSearchParams.idl/DOMURL.idl exist, the webcore/streams/ files have no generated-file header at all, and the _inspectCustom functions being edited are hand-written Bun additions in the first place.
• Verified jsMockFunctionCall normalizes thisValue before it flows into mock.contexts, the result object, or the implementation call; there is no NAPICallFrame in that file, so the ruled-out finder concern about native addons does not apply.
• Tests assert both directions (bare call → undefined; obj.fn() / .call() → receiver preserved) for each cluster, and the inspect.custom test also asserts a correct-receiver call still produces real output, guarding against an over-eager "always return undefined" regression.

[robobun]

Rebased onto main now that #39509 (mock functions, createInvalidThisError) and #39525 (StringDecoder, fs.Stats, Node-API, V8 shim) have landed. The one conflicting line was the jsMockFunctionCall receiver, which is main's version now, and the mock test here is dropped in favor of the one #39509 added. What remains in this PR is the part those two left out: setSystemTime and the fake timer functions (via the new JSValue::to_this_strict), the plugin builder methods, and the 16 inspect.custom fallbacks, squashed into one commit (373a0d1). Title and description updated to match; CI is running as build 100829.

For the record on the CodeRabbit thread about generated files: nothing changed there because those files are hand-maintained sources (no generator for them exists in the tree, and the inspect.custom functions were added to them by hand in #34660 and #34431); the description now says so.

[claude]

I reviewed this again after the inspect.custom sites and the CodeRabbit test/generator feedback were folded in — no issues found this round. Given the breadth (27 call sites across JSC C++ bindings, webcore/webcrypto, a new Bun__JSValue__toThisStrict FFI export, and the Rust fake-timer host functions), a human look is still worthwhile before merge.

What was reviewed:

• toThis(…, ECMAMode::strict()) semantics: pure mapping (JSScope→undefined, everything else unchanged), non-throwing — the [[ZIG_EXPORT(nothrow)]] on the new binding is correct, and dynamicDowncast on the resulting undefined safely returns null.
• Method-call receivers (jest.useFakeTimers(), builder.onLoad(), inspectURL.call(new URL(…))) are preserved; only scope-object receivers collapse to undefined — each test asserts both directions.
• The webcore/streams and JSCryptoKey inspectCustom bodies are hand-maintained Bun additions (installed via Bun::WebStreams::installInspectCustom), not regenerated from .classes.ts, so editing them in place is correct.

Extended reasoning...

Overview

This PR normalizes the raw callFrame->thisValue() at every native host function that returns its receiver (or hands it to user code) without first validating it, so a bare call through a closed-over/module binding no longer leaks a JSLexicalEnvironment/JSModuleEnvironment to script. The fix is the same one-token transformation — .toThis(globalObject, JSC::ECMAMode::strict()) — applied at 27 sites: JSMock__jsSetSystemTime, the seven FakeTimers.rs host functions (via a new JSValue::to_this_strict → Bun__JSValue__toThisStrict FFI shim), the three BunPlugin.cpp builder methods, and the 16 [util.inspect.custom] fallthrough branches in webcore/streams, JSDOMURL, JSURLSearchParams and JSCryptoKey. Four test files cover each cluster with both the negative (bare call → undefined) and positive (method call → receiver) directions.

Security risks

None introduced. The change is a hardening: it stops JSC-internal scope objects (whose TDZ slots are empty JSValues that crash on access) from reaching user code. JSCryptoKey.cpp is touched only in its inspect-custom receiver check, not in any key-material path.

Level of scrutiny

Medium-high. Each individual edit is trivial and identical, and toThis in strict mode is provably non-throwing and non-reentrant (it only inspects the cell type). But the change spans JSC C++ bindings, webcore/webcrypto, a new Rust↔C++ FFI export, and Rust host functions — enough surface across critical paths that a maintainer sign-off is appropriate rather than a bot-only approval.

Other factors

This is my third pass on the PR. Both prior findings (the FakeTimers/BunPlugin siblings, then the 16 inspect.custom fallthroughs) were fully addressed, as were the CodeRabbit asks (method-call assertions in plugins.test.ts; the generated-file concern is a false positive — these inspectCustom bodies are Bun-authored, not emitted by a generator). The github-actions comment-cop note on JSValue.rs was resolved (doc comment trimmed to one line). All inline threads are marked resolved. The jsMockFunctionCall portion of the original fix landed separately in #39509, which this PR sits on top of. CI for the current head (build #100829) was still running at review time.
