LGTM — one-line fix reusing the existing hasAcceptableHost helper for the last path #34660 missed.
What was reviewed:
- Confirmed
origin()is the only remaining spot in URLDecomposition.cpp that constructs aWTF::URLfrom user input;setHost/setHostnamealready have this exact check. - Checked that the inner scheme filter (http/https/ftp/ws/wss/file) means only special schemes reach
protocolHostAndPort(), so the!hasSpecialScheme()short-circuit in the helper is inert here — the change is purely a tightening. - Test covers every scheme in that filter, plus positive cases (valid
xn--ls8h, Unicode → punycode, port,xn--ain path/query) proving no regression.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
Adds && hasAcceptableHost(subUrl) to the blob: branch of URLDecomposition::origin() so that a blob: URL whose inner path re-parses to a host with an invalid xn-- label yields origin "null" instead of a tuple origin. Also updates the helper's comment and adds a test in test/js/web/url/url.test.ts.
Security risks
Origin is security-relevant, but this change is strictly a tightening: inputs that previously produced a tuple origin now produce "null", matching Node, Bun 1.3.14, and the spec (an inner URL that fails to parse yields an opaque origin). No new surface is exposed and no origin becomes more permissive.
Level of scrutiny
Low-to-medium. The functional diff is a single boolean conjunct calling a static helper already used identically two places in the same file (setHost, setHostname). The PR description traces exactly why this path was missed (#34660 covered constructor/parse/canParse/href/host/hostname setters; blob-origin re-parse was the remaining site). The helper's || !url.hasSpecialScheme() fallback is moot here because the very next line only accepts special-scheme inner URLs anyway.
Other factors
- Test asserts both directions: nine invalid-punycode inner URLs (across http/https/ws/wss/ftp/file, including uppercase
XN--, percent-encodedx%6E--, multi-label, and degeneratexn---/xn--a-) each throw fromnew URL(inner)and give"null"fromnew URL("blob:"+inner).origin; five valid inner URLs (valid punycode, Unicode host, port,xn--ain path/query) still produce the correct tuple origin. - PR states the test fails on the released 1.4 build and passes with this change;
test/js/web/url(including WPT origin expectations) andtest/js/node/urlpass. - No memory, threading, or exception-scope concerns — pure const string logic on a stack-local
WTF::URL.

Data point for whoever picks this up: the premise ("Node returns null") holds for Node 26.3 but not for current Node. The URL Standard changed in June (whatwg/url a8d5ca3716, "Add Unicode ToASCII fallback for ASCII domains"), WPT followed (b63305b743, "IDNA cannot fail ASCII domains, even if they start with xn--"), and ada 4.0 implements it, which shipped in Node 26.7. Checked with the Node 26.7.0 binary: Non-ASCII hosts still fail IDNA as before; only all-ASCII hosts with |

URLDecomposition::origin() re-parses a blob: URL's path with WTF::URL
alone. Since the WebKit bump that removed the parser's own xn-- check,
that parse accepts hosts such as xn--a.com that the URL constructor,
URL.parse, URL.canParse and the host setters reject through
hasValidPunycodeHost, so new URL("blob:http://xn--a.com/").origin
returned "http://xn--a.com" while new URL("http://xn--a.com/") threw.
Apply the same host check to the inner URL, so it counts as unparsed and
the origin is "null", matching Node and Bun 1.3.

I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. The one-line source change reuses hasAcceptableHost exactly as the setHost/setHostname paths already do, and the test covers both the reject and accept sides across all special schemes. However, robobun's Aug 17 note flags that the URL Standard and Node 26.7 (ada 4.0) moved the other way on all-ASCII xn-- labels, and explicitly frames "reject everywhere vs. accept everywhere" as a maintainer call to be made before this merges — so a human should make that call.
What was reviewed:
hasAcceptableHost(subUrl)short-circuits on non-special schemes and on hosts withoutxn--, so valid inner URLs (including Unicode→punycode likemünchen.de) are unaffected — the test's positive block confirms this.- Checked that the inner-URL scheme filter on the next line already excludes non-special schemes, so the
!url.hasSpecialScheme()arm of the helper is redundant here but harmless. - The test's invalid list exercises every scheme the origin branch admits (http/https/ws/wss/ftp/file) and the percent-encoded / uppercase / multi-label spellings;
xn--in path/query is covered as a non-match.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
The PR adds && hasAcceptableHost(subUrl) to the blob: branch of URLDecomposition::origin() in src/jsc/bindings/URLDecomposition.cpp, and adds a 34-line test to test/js/web/url/url.test.ts. The helper is already defined in the same file and used identically by setHost and setHostname. The effect is that a blob: URL whose inner path parses to a special-scheme URL with an invalid punycode host label now returns origin "null" instead of a tuple origin — making .origin agree with what new URL(inner) does on the same input.
Security risks
None. This tightens a validation path (fewer inputs produce a tuple origin), applies a check that already gates every other host-parsing entry point, and touches no auth/crypto/permissions code.
Level of scrutiny
The mechanical change is trivial and self-evidently consistent with the sibling call sites in the same file; on that basis alone I would approve. What raises the bar is robobun's timeline comment noting that the WHATWG URL Standard changed in June (whatwg/url a8d5ca3716), WPT followed, and Node 26.7 / ada 4.0 now accept all-ASCII xn-- labels — the exact inputs this PR makes origin() reject. The comment explicitly says the choice between this PR's direction (reject everywhere, matching Node ≤26.6 and the vendored WPT fixtures) and the opposite (drop hasValidPunycodeHost everywhere, matching Node 26.7 and current WPT) "is a maintainer call; flagging it here so it is made before this merges." That is an outstanding, unaddressed design question on the thread.
Other factors
Internal consistency clearly favors merging something — main currently has the constructor reject and origin() accept, which is the worst of both. This PR is the smaller, lower-risk of the two consistent options and is easy to reverse later if the maintainers choose to follow Node 26.7. The test is well-constructed (fails on the released build, passes with the fix, covers positive and negative cases across every admitted scheme, verifies xn-- in path/query does not trigger the host check). The comment-cop and CodeRabbit threads are resolved. But per the guidelines, an explicit "maintainer call" flagged on the thread and not yet answered is exactly the case where I should defer rather than approve.

Confirmed the data point above: whatwg/url a8d5ca3716 (2026-06-25) makes domain-to-ASCII fall back to the lowercased input for all-ASCII domains, WPT b63305b743 flips the matching cases ( So there are two consistent end states:

Bun 1.3.14 and Node 26.3 return"null"for the blob origin.URLDecomposition::origin()(src/jsc/bindings/URLDecomposition.cpp:49) derives a blob: URL's origin by re-parsing its path with a bareWTF::URLand only checksisValid().xn--labels, so that inner parse accepts invalid punycode. node compat batch: callback-throw dispatch, Assert class + native deep-equality parity, Intl gate + URL/buffer fallout, compile cache, watch kill-signal, profilers (+98 tests) #34660 restored the rejection (hasValidPunycodeHost) for the constructor,URL.parse,URL.canParse,href, and thehost/hostnamesetters, but not for this path, which is where the two answers diverged. In 1.3.14 the parser itself rejected the host, so both agreed.Fix

An inner URL with an invalid punycode label is treated as unparsed, so the origin is"null".new URL(inner)would accept.

xn--labels parse. WPT b63305b743 flipped the matching cases and Node 26.7 follows it (ada 3.4.4 to 4.0.0). Node 26.3, Bun 1.3.14 and the WPT fixtures vendored in this repo all still reject.origin()(node compat batch: callback-throw dispatch, Assert class + native deep-equality parity, Intl gate + URL/buffer fallout, compile cache, watch kill-signal, profilers (+98 tests) #34660, with a fast path added in URL: reuse input string for href, per-VM base cache, judge literal punycode without full ICU #39468), and its vendored fixtures pin it. This PR completes that state with one line.hasValidPunycodeHostand its callers,ASCIIHostPunycodeCheck.h, and re-vendor the fixtures. That removes the line this PR adds along with everything around it, so it would be its own PR. Which state Bun wants is the decision to make here; as long as main rejects in the constructor,.originshould not accept the same host.Background
xn--label: the ASCII encoding of a Unicode domain label (xn--ls8his the pile of poo emoji). UTS Bun v0.0.41 #46 (IDNA) defines whichxn--labels are valid;xn--adoes not decode to anything, so ada 3.x (Node up to 26.6) fails to parse hosts containing it.hasValidPunycodeHost(src/jsc/bindings/NodeURL.cpp): Bun's port of that check, run on top of WebKit's parser, which only lowercases all-ASCII hosts.hasAcceptableHostin URLDecomposition.cpp wraps it and skips non-special schemes, whose hosts are opaque and never go through IDNA."null".Before / after for the inner URLs checked (after column equals Node 26.3)
Where the rejection went: the WTF
URLParserat the WebKit pin used by Bun 1.3.14 still hadsubdomainStartsWithXNDashDash, which sent ASCIIxn--hosts through ICU; the pin from #32414 onward does not. Bun's own check (#34660) coversDOMURL::create,parse,canParse,setHref,setHostandsetHostname;origin()was the remaining path that parses user input into a host.
