When Bun's require(esm) sets m_hasESModuleMarker on a module namespace object, the marker is currently surfaced through a custom accessor that Bun installs on a bespoke prototype. ns.__esModule reads true, but the marker is invisible to own-property operations (Object.keys, Object.hasOwn, spread, Object.assign, JSON.stringify), which is what transpiler interop helpers look at after they clone the namespace.

Node's require(esm) returns a namespace where __esModule is an own {value: true, writable: true, enumerable: true, configurable: false} property, sorted in with the other exports, on a null-prototype object, and writes to it fail like writes to any other namespace binding.

This makes m_hasESModuleMarker == True behave that way:

override behavior
getOwnPropertySlotCommon reports the marker directly on this with DontDelete
getOwnPropertyNames inserts __esModule at its code-point position among the exports
deleteProperty refuses, like an export binding
put / defineOwnProperty a truthy data write sets the flag. Anything else falls through to the namespace's normal failure path, so a property observed as non-configurable never disappears

The marker has to live on the namespace object rather than be an ordinary property because AbstractModuleRecord caches one namespace per record: when import() creates it first, it is non-extensible and an ordinary put from the later require() fails. It also has to be reported from getOwnPropertyNames directly, because the structure's own properties are only walked when the caller asks for symbols, so an ordinary property shows up in spread but not in Object.keys.

Companion: oven-sh/bun#33894 drops the prototype override, pins this PR's preview build, and carries the tests.

🟡 The mirror case: on a spec-standard import * as ns namespace (non-extensible, marker starts Indeterminate, so __esModule is reported absent), put() here and defineOwnProperty at 374-377 still flip the marker to True and return true, materializing a new own non-configurable property on a non-extensible object — violating the same §6.1.7.3 invariant and diverging from spec §10.4.6 ([[Set]] → false) and Node (which throws). Note the earlier comment's suggested fix (gate presence on marker != Indeterminate) does not cover this for put(): after put transitions Indeterminate→True the property still appears; the write itself needs to be rejected when the marker is Indeterminate (or the object is non-extensible).

Extended reasoning...

What the bug is

This is the opposite direction of the True→False issue already flagged on this line. That comment covers a non-configurable property disappearing; this one covers a property appearing on a non-extensible object.

For a spec-standard namespace obtained via import * as ns from './x.mjs' or await import('./x.mjs'), getModuleNamespace is called with the default shouldPreventExtensions = true (AbstractModuleRecord.h:235, JSModuleNamespaceObject.h:48), so finishCreation calls preventExtensions(this, ...) and Object.isExtensible(ns) === false. Nothing on that path touches m_hasESModuleMarker, so it stays at its default TriState::Indeterminate (JSModuleNamespaceObject.h:78), and getOwnPropertySlotCommon (line 171, gated on == True) reports __esModule as absent.

After this PR, both write paths accept __esModule unconditionally whenever it isn't a real export:

  • put() at 254-256: thisObject->m_hasESModuleMarker = value.toBoolean(...) ? True : False; return true;
  • defineOwnProperty() at 374-377: same, gated only on descriptor.value().

Neither consults isStructureExtensible() nor the current marker state. Once the marker is True, getOwnPropertySlotCommon reports it as an own {value:true, writable:true, enumerable:true, configurable:false} property, getOwnPropertyNames lists it, and deleteProperty returns false.

Step-by-step proof

// x.mjs: export const a = 1;
import * as ns from './x.mjs';
Object.isExtensible(ns);                               // false
Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(ns, '__esModule');     // undefined  (marker == Indeterminate)
Object.defineProperty(ns, '__esModule', {value: true}); // returns ns, no throw  ← should throw
Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(ns, '__esModule');     // {value:true, writable:true, enumerable:true, configurable:false}
Object.keys(ns);                                       // ['__esModule', 'a']

Trace of the defineProperty call: defineOwnProperty runs getOwnPropertyDescriptorisCurrentDefined = false (marker is Indeterminate), then hits the propertyName == __esModule && !m_exports.contains(...) branch at line 374, writes m_hasESModuleMarker = True, and returns true — never reaching the if (!isCurrentDefined) rejection at line 381. The put() path (ns.__esModule = true in sloppy mode, or Reflect.set) is identical: line 254 matches, line 255 flips the marker, line 256 returns true, never reaching the spec's unconditional return false at line 262.

Why existing code doesn't prevent it

Before this PR the branch delegated to Base::put / Base::defineOwnProperty. With the companion Bun change removing the prototype accessor (null prototype), those would hit ordinary non-extensible checks and fail. The new code writes the TriState directly, and the USE(BUN_JSC_ADDITIONS) block is compile-time — it applies to all namespace objects in Bun's build, including spec-standard ESM ones where Bun never sets the marker.

Impact

ECMA-262 §6.1.7.3 requires that [[DefineOwnProperty]](P, Desc) return false when the target is non-extensible and P is not already an own property, and §10.4.6.9 defines module-namespace [[Set]] to unconditionally return false. Both are violated. Node throws TypeError: Cannot add property __esModule, object is not extensible for the same operation.

In practice this is unlikely to bite: transpiler interop helpers write __esModule to their own exports objects or read it from imported namespaces — nobody writes it onto an import * namespace. But it's a genuine spec-invariant regression on the standard ESM path, and worth fixing alongside the already-flagged issue since the code is adjacent.

Why the earlier comment's fix isn't sufficient here

The earlier inline comment suggests "gate presence on marker != Indeterminate and report jsBoolean(marker == True)", plus "let the __esModule branch fall through to the existing attribute checks in defineOwnProperty".

  • The defineOwnProperty half of that fix does happen to cover this case: falling through with isCurrentDefined == false reaches the step-3 rejection at line 381.
  • But the put() half does not: after put transitions Indeterminate→True, marker != Indeterminate is now true and the property appears — the invariant is still violated. put() needs an additional guard, e.g. only take the branch when m_hasESModuleMarker != Indeterminate (i.e. the property already exists), otherwise fall through to the spec's return false / throwTypeError at 260-262. Equivalently, gate on isStructureExtensible() or on the marker having been explicitly set by require(esm).

Preview Build attempt 1: all 29 Linux and Windows lanes passed. Three jobs in the macOS/FreeBSD cross-compile matrix failed (freebsd-amd64-debug, macos-amd64-lto, macos-arm64-asan) and fail-fast cancelled the other 11 in that matrix. The same lanes passed on other previews of this base less than an hour earlier, so this looks like a runner problem rather than the change.

Handle false writes to the active __esModule marker.

The marker is reported as writable, but put accepts only truthy values. After activation, Reflect.set(namespace, "__esModule", false) returns false, and strict assignment throws. Clear m_hasESModuleMarker for false writes, or report the marker as non-writable. Add regression tests.

Bun's require(esm) currently surfaces __esModule via a custom accessor on a
bespoke module-namespace prototype. Reading ns.__esModule returns true, but
every own-property view (Object.keys, Object.hasOwn, spread, Object.assign,
JSON.stringify) loses it, so interop helpers that clone the namespace before
checking the flag double-wrap and callers end up reaching for
.default.default.

Node's require(esm) returns a null-prototype namespace with __esModule as an
own enumerable data property, added only when the module has a default
export.

This drops the prototype override so the namespace structure uses the spec's
null prototype again, and gates the marker on the module having a default
export. The marker is now stored on the namespace via the existing
JSModuleNamespaceObject::put override and reported as an own property by the
namespace object's own-property hooks.

Depends on oven-sh/WebKit#279, which teaches JSModuleNamespaceObject to
surface m_hasESModuleMarker as an own property. Without that change this
commit regresses: put() on the null-prototype, non-extensible namespace is a

Bun's require(esm) currently surfaces __esModule via a custom accessor on a
bespoke module-namespace prototype. Reading ns.__esModule returns true, but
every own-property view (Object.keys, Object.hasOwn, spread, Object.assign,
JSON.stringify) loses it, so interop helpers that clone the namespace before
checking the flag double-wrap and callers end up reaching for
.default.default.

Node's require(esm) returns a null-prototype namespace with __esModule as an
own enumerable data property, added only when the module has a default
export.

This drops the prototype override so the namespace structure uses the spec's
null prototype again, and gates the marker on the module having a default
export. The marker is now stored on the namespace via the existing
JSModuleNamespaceObject::put override and reported as an own property by the
namespace object's own-property hooks.

Depends on oven-sh/WebKit#279, which teaches JSModuleNamespaceObject to
surface m_hasESModuleMarker as an own property. Without that change this
commit regresses: put() on the null-prototype, non-extensible namespace is a
no-op and __esModule disappears entirely.

When Bun's require(esm) sets m_hasESModuleMarker on a module namespace
object, the marker was previously surfaced through a custom accessor on
a bespoke prototype. That made ns.__esModule read as true but kept it
invisible to own-property operations (Object.keys, Object.hasOwn,
spread, Object.assign, JSON.stringify), which is what transpiler interop
helpers rely on after cloning the namespace.

Node's require(esm) returns a namespace where __esModule is an own,
enumerable, non-configurable data property, interleaved with the other
exports in code-point order, and writes to it fail like writes to any
other namespace binding.

This change makes m_hasESModuleMarker == True behave that way:

  getOwnPropertySlotCommon  reports { value: true, writable, enumerable,
                             configurable: false } directly on this
  getOwnPropertyNames       inserts __esModule at its sorted position
  deleteProperty            refuses, like an export binding
  put / defineOwnProperty   a truthy data write sets the flag; anything
                             else falls through to the namespace's normal
                             [[Set]] / [[DefineOwnProperty]] failure, so
                             a property once observed as non-configurable
                             never disappears again

With this in place Bun can drop its custom moduleNamespaceObjectStructure
prototype and return to the spec's null prototype.
