I. News

1.1 Recent Version Releases:

The current version of this repository is v23.10.0

1.2 Version Information:

Released on March 13, 2025, this version introduces the --experimental-config-file feature, allowing developers to use JSON configuration files to simplify flag management for test runners and other features, enhancing developer experience. Additionally, it includes updates to root certificates, new TLS and V8 methods, improved error handling, and various tooling and documentation enhancements.

II. Issues

2.1 Top 5 Active Issues:

We consider active issues to be issues that that have been commented on most frequently within the last week. Bot comments are omitted.

1. Support TypeScript executable without extension when flag is set: This issue requests a feature to allow TypeScript executables without a file extension to be run directly when a specific flag is set, avoiding the need to expose the .ts extension in script names. The user proposes a new command-line flag that forces Node.js to interpret extensionless files as TypeScript, enabling scripts to encapsulate interpreter details and improving usability for scripts distributed outside of npm packages.

   • The comments discuss current behavior where extensionless files default to CommonJS and only .ts files are treated as TypeScript, with suggestions to add a new flag to override this. Participants clarify misunderstandings about existing flags, propose possible flag names like --experimental-force-ts-entrypoint, --experimental-entrypoint-type, or --ext, and debate the best approach to implement this feature while considering future extensibility and compatibility.
   • Number of comments this week: 14

2. SEA silently crashing when attempting to use .node DLL which works fine as a script: This issue describes a problem where a Single Executable Application (SEA) built with Node.js crashes silently when attempting to use a .node DLL (specifically node-raylib), even though the same DLL works fine when run as a standalone script. The user expects the SEA app to behave identically to the script by successfully loading the DLL and displaying a raylib window, but instead, the SEA app fails without any error messages.

   • The comments clarify that native addons are not currently supported out of the box in SEA, but theoretically can be bundled as assets, written to disk at runtime, and loaded with process.dlopen(). The user is confident their example follows this approach correctly, but the issue persists, and no definitive solution is provided. It is suggested that debugging with tools like Visual Studio or WinDbg might help, though the likelihood of volunteer support for SEA issues is low.
   • Number of comments this week: 6

3. zlib.gunzip incorrectly decompresses content >4GB from Buffer: This issue reports a problem with Node.js's zlib module where decompressing gzipped content larger than 4GB using gunzipSync results in corrupted output, despite the decompressed buffer size being correct. The user provides a detailed reproduction script and notes that the problem does not occur with smaller files, indicating a size-related bug in the decompression process for very large buffers.

   • Commenters confirm the issue can be reproduced but suggest it is not strictly related to file size; instead, the problem may stem from differences between files compressed with the system's gzip command versus Node's own gzip functions. They observe that Node's decompression works correctly on files compressed by Node but fails on those compressed by the system tool, and that the corruption appears only with very large files, supporting the original report's findings.
   • Number of comments this week: 3

4. sqlite.backup() TypeScript definition incorrectly returns Promise instead of Promise: This issue addresses a discrepancy in the TypeScript type definition for the backup() function in Node.js SQLite bindings, where it is currently typed to return a Promise<void> instead of the correct Promise<number>, which reflects the number of pages backed up. The user provides examples from the DefinitelyTyped repository and Node.js documentation to illustrate the mismatch and requests correction of the type definition.

   • The comments suggest that issues with type definitions should be reported to the DefinitelyTyped repository, express uncertainty about whether the problem lies in the type definitions or the implementation, and note that the Node.js documentation is incomplete but may be improved by a related issue.
   • Number of comments this week: 3

5. Node 24 breaks ts-node REPL: This issue reports that Node.js version 24.5.0 breaks the ts-node REPL on both Mac and Windows platforms, causing any typed TypeScript expression to output a pipe operator instead of the expected evaluated result. The problem consistently occurs when using ts-node v10.9.2 and TypeScript v5.9.2, whereas the REPL works correctly in Node.js version 22.

   • The comments clarify that this issue is related to the ts-node project rather than Node.js itself and suggest reporting it to the ts-node repository. Additionally, it is noted that the default Node.js REPL functions correctly, and a similar problem has been previously documented in the ts-node issue tracker.
   • Number of comments this week: 2

2.2 Top 5 Stale Issues:

We consider stale issues to be issues that has had no activity within the last 30 days. The team should work together to get these issues resolved and closed as soon as possible.

1. Flaky GC-related tests with V8 12.2: This issue addresses flaky garbage collection (GC)-related tests that have become unreliable with the update to V8 version 12.2, specifically highlighting problems with the test-shadow-realm-gc-module, test-shadow-realm-gc, and test-net-write-fully-async-hex-string tests. The proposed approach is to skip these tests temporarily due to their instability caused by changes in V8's GC strategy, while acknowledging that current alternative methods to verify GC behavior may invalidate the tests, and suggesting that a more robust testing solution be developed in the future.
2. Flaky test-worker-arraybuffer-zerofill with V8 12.2: This issue concerns the flaky behavior of the test-worker-arraybuffer-zerofill test when running with V8 version 12.2, where the test intermittently fails due to a timeout after approximately 300 seconds. The problem may stem from either a genuine bug or broken timing assumptions causing lost messages, and the current approach is to mark the test as flaky while adding additional logging to aid in debugging.
3. Support loading dynamic addon modules (.node files) when embedding the Node.js shared library without needing to link with node.def: This issue addresses the challenge of loading dynamic Node.js addon modules (.node files) on Windows when Node.js is embedded as a shared library, without requiring the embedding executable to link against the node.def file to reexport necessary symbols. The proposed feature suggests modifying the delay load hook to optionally use an environment variable to locate the Node.js shared library module handle, enabling addon modules to load correctly without the current linking dependency, though potential security concerns remain to be evaluated.
4. Please make Node.js embeddable (e.g. libnode): This issue requests the creation of a dedicated embeddable version of Node.js, such as a libnode library, to allow projects to integrate the Node.js runtime and standard library directly within other host environments, like Rust-based applications. The proposer highlights that the current lack of an easily embeddable Node.js runtime forces developers to rely on incomplete alternatives like Deno, and emphasizes the potential benefits for various projects and organizations that need seamless reuse of Node.js tooling and dependencies.
5. unable to sign with external OpenSSL engine after usage of crypto.hash: This issue describes a problem where signing data with an external OpenSSL engine (specifically the gost-engine) fails after using the crypto.createHash function in Node.js version 21.7.0 and later. The user reports that while the signature process works correctly in version 21.6.2 and earlier, it now produces an "unsupported" error related to digital envelope routines, indicating a regression likely caused by recent changes in the Node.js crypto subsystem.

2.3 Open Issues

This section lists, groups, and then summarizes issues that were created within the last week in the repository.

Issues Opened This Week: 17

Summarized Issues:

• Decoding and Encoding Issues: Node.js versions from v20.18.3 onward incorrectly decode the Windows-1252 encoded en dash character using TextDecoder, producing wrong Unicode output compared to earlier versions that decode it correctly. This indicates a regression in character decoding behavior affecting text processing.
• issues/59515

• Single Executable Application (SEA) Crashes: Multiple issues report segmentation faults and silent crashes in Node.js Single Executable Application tests across different platforms including macOS, Linux ppc64le, and Windows. These crashes involve injected binaries or loading .node DLL addons, causing instability and failures in continuous integration environments.
• issues/59553, issues/59561, issues/59574

• Module and API Enhancements: Proposals and requests include adding a bytes method to node:stream/consumers for Uint8Array output, modifying napi_delete_reference to accept a different environment parameter, and adding a command-line flag to treat extensionless executables as TypeScript. These aim to improve API consistency, correctness, and developer experience.
• issues/59542, issues/59583, issues/59565

• Security and Dependency Updates: Node.js 20.19.4 includes OpenSSL 3.0.15 which has known vulnerabilities fixed in 3.0.16, prompting a request to update OpenSSL in a future patch release to address security concerns.
• issues/59548

• Decompression and Buffer Handling Bugs: The zlib module incorrectly decompresses gzipped content larger than 4GB from a Buffer, resulting in corrupted output despite correct decompressed size, indicating a critical bug in large data handling.
• issues/59552

• Test Flakiness and CI Failures: Some tests such as parallel/test-http-keep-alive-empty-line on Linux ARM64 intermittently fail due to unhandled stream errors, and other tests fail due to segmentation faults, highlighting ongoing instability in test suites under certain architectures and configurations.
• issues/59577

• Codebase Compatibility and Deprecation: There is a need to review Node.js code for compatibility with new options like GetOptionsAsFlags and --experimental-default-config-file, and to address deprecated usage of v8::String::WriteOneByte still present in the source directory.
• issues/59554, issues/59555

• Documentation Improvements: A proposal suggests updating the fs module documentation to include MDN links on explicit resource management patterns such as await using, to better illustrate modern usage alongside traditional methods.
• issues/59556

• Test Reporting Issues: Using node:assert with the JUnit XML reporter produces incorrect failure elements and messages in test reports, causing misleading or combined assertion messages and improper attributes in the XML output.
• issues/59593

• Scheduler API Status: The Scheduler API in Node.js has seen little recent development, raising questions about its future direction despite alignment with browser implementations, indicating uncertainty about ongoing support or advancement.

• issues/59597

• vm.SourceTextModule MicrotaskMode Crash: Using vm.SourceTextModule with microtaskMode set to "afterEvaluate" causes premature process termination due to an unsettled top-level await warning, whereas omitting this setting allows normal execution.
• issues/59541

2.4 Closed Issues

This section lists, groups, and then summarizes issues that were closed within the last week in the repository. This section also links the associated pull requests if applicable.

Issues Closed This Week: 19

Summarized Issues:

• Certificate update failures due to external repository migration: The Node.js workflow for updating root certificates is failing because Mozilla's migration from Mercurial to GitHub caused missing files, resulting in 404 errors when fetching NSS version information needed for reproducible updates. This issue is compounded by failing certificate update scripts referenced in related GitHub Actions runs.
• [issues/59212, issues/59506]

• Documentation inaccuracies and ambiguities: Several documentation issues exist, including incorrect version information for tls.DEFAULT_CIPHERS which was introduced in version 0.11.3 but documented as added in 19.8.0 and 18.16.0, and ambiguity in process.resourceUsage#maxRSS units where the docs state kilobytes but the actual measurement aligns with kibibytes. These inaccuracies can mislead developers and should be corrected for clarity.
• [issues/59246, issues/59508]

• Enhancements and experimental features for JSON parsing: There are proposals to expose the internal simdjson JSON parser in Node.js via an experimental flag or dedicated module to allow testing and feedback, alongside discussions about using simdjson::pad for string padding in parsing. These efforts aim to explore high-performance JSON parsing options despite existing V8 improvements.
• [issues/59373, issues/59389]

• Module loading and ES module runtime errors: A regression in Node.js v22.18.0 causes crashes when requiring ES modules with runtime loaders due to a missing null-check in ModuleLoader.getModuleJobForRequire(), leading to a TypeError from accessing an undefined property. This was introduced by a commit changing ModuleLoader.load() from asynchronous to synchronous, impacting module loading stability.
• [issues/59366]

• SQLite parameter binding inconsistencies: The Node.js sqlite subsystem incorrectly treats positional numbered question mark parameters (e.g., ?1) as named parameters rather than positional ones, causing errors during statement execution. This behavior deviates from SQLite documentation and other implementations like Python, which bind these parameters positionally from left to right.
• [issues/59340]

• Test failures and CI workflow disruptions: Upgrading to Node.js 24.6.0 causes Jest unit tests to fail with errors related to module linking and environment teardown when using the --experimental-vm-modules flag, whereas tests passed in 24.5. Additionally, coverage workflows break due to GitHub Actions enforcing SHA pinning, causing failures in codecov-action which does not pin dependencies, prompting proposals to revert this enforcement if fixes are not merged timely.
• [issues/59480, issues/59505]

• Web Cryptography API bugs: The CryptoKey algorithm and usages getters incorrectly return references to internal slots instead of cached copies, allowing modifications that violate specification expectations. Also, the publicExponent property in RsaHashedKeyGenParams is not properly normalized from a Buffer to a Uint8Array during RSA key generation, causing potential cryptographic issues.
• [issues/59534, issues/59535]

• BigInt exponentiation error message bug: When exponentiating BigInts with a negative exponent in Node.js v24.6.0, the error message incorrectly states "RangeError: undefined must be positive" instead of the clearer "RangeError: Exponent must be positive." This confusing message originates from the V8 engine rather than Node.js itself.
• [issues/59521]

• Build and platform-specific issues: Building V8 with Node.js 22.18.0 on RockyLinux 8 using GCC 8 results in compile errors due to template argument mismatches, requiring patches for compatibility with older GCC versions. Additionally, changing build configurations for the OpenHarmony platform causes numerous flaky tests and CI errors on Mac and Linux.
• [issues/59594, issues/59573]

• Feature request closure due to implementation constraints: A request to expose V8's lite mode as a runtime CLI flag in Node.js to reduce memory usage for embedded systems was closed because enabling lite mode requires a compile-time option and cannot be implemented as a runtime flag.
• [issues/59509]

• Miscellaneous maintenance and unclear issue: An issue related to navigation in version n-v2 primarily contains status updates and maintenance logs from coveralls.io without specific actionable details. Another issue references OpenJS version 15 but lacks detailed description or comments, including a failed image upload.
• [issues/59533, issues/59559]
