fix(runtime): in and destructuring on a Uint8Array with own properties (#9347) - #9435
Conversation
…ies (PerryTS#9347) Two more instances of the PerryTS#9342 split-brain class, both WRONG ANSWERS on ordinary JavaScript. A `Uint8Array` is represented by a registered BUFFER, so `lookup_typed_array_kind` can never recognise it; a site that reads that "no" as "this value has no such property / is not iterable" computes the wrong result rather than taking a slow path. Confirmed against node before and after, which is the only evidence that distinguishes a real defect here from a plausible-looking one: node before after `"extra" in u8` true FALSE true destructuring a Uint8Array works TypeError works The first is the nastier shape: `in` answered `false` while `hasOwnProperty` on the same object answered `true`, so the object disagreed with itself and nothing threw. The second is a spurious `TypeError: value is not a function` on valid code. `has_property.rs` now also asks the buffer-aware own-property helper, matching what `Object.keys`, `hasOwnProperty` and `getOwnPropertyDescriptor` already do — the same "give this site the buffer arm its older siblings already have" repair as the two fixes that came before it. `array/iterator.rs` gets the matching treatment for the iteration path destructuring uses. Found by differential testing rather than by reading dispatch code: write the JavaScript, run it under node and under perry, diff. That is how both earlier instances were found too, and it is why the audit was re-framed that way after a first attempt spent its budget reading call sites. Tests: two differential fixtures under `test-files/`; perry-runtime suite 2926 passed / 0 failed. Authored by a Codex agent working PerryTS#9347; the bugs, the fixes and the test suite were re-verified independently by the Claude session that filed the issue — a pre-fix binary reproduces both divergences, the agent's tree eliminates both, and neither result is taken from the agent's report.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughTyped array runtime handling now supports native iterator dispatch during destructuring and checks ordinary expando properties in the typed-array own-property store. Tests cover ChangesTyped array runtime behavior
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to Typed-array destructuring now uses a fallback that may reuse an iterator after a potentially allocating property lookup. If the iterator moves during that lookup, valid destructuring could produce incorrect results or crash at runtime, so the change is not merge-ready until the iterator is safely rooted.

- Line 1309: Update the typed-array iterator dispatch around the named_field
lookup to keep iter_f64 rooted in a RuntimeHandleScope before any allocation.
After named_field, re-read the current NaN-boxed iterator value from the handle
for is_builtin_iterator_class_id, js_native_call_method, and the named_field
receiver so moving GC cannot leave stale pointers.

Root the iterator before the native dispatch.
named_field can allocate and trigger the moving collector. This branch then reads iter_f64 again for is_builtin_iterator_class_id and passes it to js_native_call_method. If the iterator moved during the lookup, both operations use a stale pointer. Typed-array destructuring can then misclassify the iterator or crash.
Keep the iterator in a RuntimeHandleScope before the lookup. Re-read the NaN-boxed value from the handle for the class check and native call. Ensure named_field also re-reads a rooted receiver after its allocation.

Found by differential testing, not by reading dispatch code — write the JavaScript, run it under node and under perry, diff. That is how both earlier instances in this class were found, and it is why the audit was re-framed that way after a first attempt spent its budget enumerating call sites without producing a reproduction.

Authored by a Codex agent working #9347. The bugs, the fixes and the suite were re-verified independently by the session that filed the issue: a pre-fix binary reproduces both divergences, the agent's tree eliminates both, and neither result is taken from the agent's report. (A sibling agent's report on #9374 cited a commit hash that was never created, which is why nothing here is relayed unchecked.)
Remaining audit scope from #9347 is unchanged — these were found by covering property/iteration surfaces; the wider miss-consumer sweep is still open.
