Restrict process and Buffer globals to CommonJS

[guybedford]

This PR deprecates access to global.process and global.Buffer access in ECMAScript modules only, while ensuring they continue to behave fine for all CommonJS modules and contexts providing comprehensive backwards compatibility.

This is done by making them getters which check the context in which they are called and throw when inside an ECMAScript module. To avoid this getter slowpath in accesses, process and Buffer are also added as a context to the compileFunction wrapper in CJS. In addition these getters are only defined as soon as there is a load of an ECMAScript module to avoid any slowdowns in these cases.

The benefits of this are that then ECMAScript modules don't by default have to assume access to all the root-level-security functions and properties on process allowing access control to be added in future, as well as helping towards browser compatibility by making process an import.

ECMAScript modules share the same realm global, so there isn't a way to do this otherwise. In addition once users start running and writing and publishing ECMAScript modules in Node.js that assume the process and Buffer globals exist, it becomes very difficult to change this then.

For these reasons I think it is quite important to land this with the ECMAScript modules implementation in Node.js to provide these properties, or risk never being able to provide them at all in Node.js due to ecosystem compatibility constraints.

@guybedford sadly an error occured when I tried to trigger a build :(

[devsnek]

can you undo all the unrelated changes to context.js?

[ljharb]

While Buffer is fine, process is necessary for environment detection, and will continue to be necessary in ESM. I don’t see what the benefit is of denying it as a global there.

[ljharb]

In other words, this PR provides a valid technical means to remove these globals from ESM, but it will still create a world where many kinds of CJS modules will be unable to be refactored to ESM, or will break if they are naively refactored (ie, will silently start going down browser code paths, because the use of typeof won’t trigger any deprecation warnings)

[guybedford]

While Buffer is fine, process is necessary for environment detection, and will continue to be necessary in ESM.

import.meta.NODE_ENV or similar could be provided as an alternative for environment detections.

I don’t see what the benefit is of denying it as a global there.

process.binding provides access to all native bindings. process.hrtime provides high resolution timers. process provides a hugely complex interface without any encapsulation or access control. Including it by default in ES Modules means living with those design decisions for the rest of Node.js's lifetime. If that is what we want then sure, but at least it should be an explicit decision and not something that just happens by default.

Process-related: if we are going to do this, we need to doc-deprecate first before emitting warnings.

[ljharb]

Using import.meta (would that work in CJS too? It’s important imo that both cjs and ESM have the same mechanisms available to them) would force a build tool on what was a simple typeof check.

It sounds like what you really want is to deprecate process.binding and process.hrtime, and perhaps some others - can we focus on deprecating those, instead of throwing the baby out with the bathwater by getting rid of the entire useful global?

"Fixing" process to be a secure global is what we'd be left with otherwise certainly. It would also mean individually replacing all of these APIs with alternatives, so we'd be looking at dozens of individual API changes instead. It won't be pretty, but yes that is the alternative to work towards these properties.

The other side of that is that we wouldn't want ES module users to use process.binding to load native modules as if that gets traction in the ecosystem then we can never remove it.

[devsnek]

fwiw process.binding is being deprecated anyway.

[guybedford]

@devsnek do you have a link? What is it being replaced with?

[devsnek]

#22160

it's not being replaced with anything

[guybedford]

@devsnek interesting - that is important to know as we then effectively have no means of loading binaries from within ECMAScript modules, without using createRequireFromPath. Edit: mixed this up with process.dlopen!

Note also what a huge effort changing process.binding is. Try multiplying that by dozens to understand what it would mean to make process safe. ES Modules give us a chance to encapsulate. It's certainly not the end of the world if we can't, but it's an opportunity we have that I think is important to consider carefully.

A couple of questions that come to mind:

• How does requiring an import versus using a global property help to create an attenuated privelige environment? It seems to be equivalent at first glance.
• Does removing things from the global object actually make code more cross-platform? There are tons of platform APIs on the web that are exposed via global properties and I see no effort to move all web APIs to modules.
• Can not sandboxes/realms be used to create the attenuated environment that you are interested in? Won't you have to use sandboxes anyway in order to intercede on imports?

Thanks!

• How does requiring an import versus using a global property help to create an attenuated privelige environment? It seems to be equivalent at first glance.

Different hooks for attenuation / different analysis of dynamic access. Dynamic global access is quite hard to check for and you get lots of bailouts as can be seen in some tools for auditing like https://github.com/bmeck/tofu .

• Does removing things from the global object actually make code more cross-platform? There are tons of platform APIs on the web that are exposed via global properties and I see no effort to move all web APIs to modules.

Yes and no; by moving it to an import, it still allows it to be polyfilled via means like import hooks or redirection. It however does help show when something is used that is not present in all environments more easily per the point above.

• Can not sandboxes/realms be used to create the attenuated environment that you are interested in? Won't you have to use sandboxes anyway in order to intercede on imports?

You don't need sandboxes for imports if you have import hooks. You do need sandboxes for attenuating globals (which is also complex once you start talking about shared intrinsics). Realms are not going to be ready anytime soon for this that I can tell. The underpinnings to even allow Realms as often talked about is still somewhat up in the air per tc39/ecma262#1420

Overall I don't think we should equate global attenuation with import attenuation.

Process-related: if we are going to do this, we need to doc-deprecate first before emitting warnings.

Ok I will update along these lines. @joyeecheung does that mean the deprecation warnings can be added as a semver minor?

[mcollina]

I’ll post the data in the rowesr form. Have we tried running the http benchmarks in core?

[guybedford]

@bmeck the problem is that i don’t consider the process object to be problematic, and more importantly i consider a number of properties of it being available as globals to be critical. The request is to not avoid the harder but more correct task of sequestering the actually dangerous parts rather than deprecating what is overwhelmingly the means of environment detection, cross-package config (NODE_ENV, BABEL_ENV, and many others), nextTick (which isn’t a global like setTimeout but is just as important), the cwd which is how tons of tools locate the current project dir, etc - saying “you can just import the module” minimizes the herculean task it will be for the ecosystem to actually do that, and imo simultaneously hugely overexaggerates the security benefits of this change.

[bmeck]

@ljharb I do not believe that approach to be more correct. With the dependencies remapping in policies, you can control the access to modules. However, we cannot well control access to globals and their properties without something like Compartments and the ECMA262 PR to allow them. As it stands, we simply do not have the proper mechanism to control globals in the way you describe at a granular level.

[ljharb]

I’d invite you to consider that the consequence of not having the mechanisms yet means that you simply can’t get the security properties you want yet, instead of meaning that it’s ok to worsen the DX of ESM users in the meantime.

[mcollina]

@guybedford I don't think that decrease is acceptable. We work a lot to bring up perf there, and I'm not sure we should be decreasing it.

[mcollina]

@nodejs/tsc what do you think?

[bmeck]

I'm going to be spending some time profiling what is going on. I don't see code related to this in inspector profiles or --prof that would make the time difference make sense. I'm wondering if something odd is happening and will have to dig into opts/deopts a bit. The only other alternative for what is causing stuff is the context wrapper but I would have to talk to V8 about why it isn't being optimized away which might take time.

[guybedford]

It sounds like the context is deoptimizing more than we can allow, so we probably need to reconsider the technical approach here.

Closing to reopen a new PR if we make progress on that.

[guybedford]

To update here further, after exploring various alternatives in discussions with @bmeck and @devsnek it seems to be the case that there is simply nothing we can do without some serious assistance from v8 on this, which we were unable to get any interest in.

Perhaps a later TC39 proposal can provide per-module global access permissions, and we can focus our future efforts there, but for now I'll be abandoning this deprecation. Thanks all for your help and feedback.

[erights]

Yes. Realms and SES

[guybedford]

Yes. Realms and SES

The problem we have is that the npm ecosystem will now proliferate with ES modules containing global process access, which is a big security loss for the Node.js ecosystem. But yes hopefully we can find future mitigations or deprecation paths. A TC39 proposal to explicitly provide a deprecation path for specific globals would allow shaping the ecosystem in this way, and may even be useful for browsers as well for similar goals.

[guybedford]

The issue being that, a custom realm that doesn't provide the global process, will simply not support large swathes of the ecosystem due to compatibility issues on the expectation of global process being present.

[erights]

SES enables virtualizing globals as well, so that an individual module can be given a global binding of process to an emulated process object that provides just the authority that module should have.

[guybedford]

@erights global-per-module virtualization (or even global-per-package boundary) seems very expensive for performance, especially with module counts of the scale of the npm ecosystem. Seems like it makes it much harder to justify. I agree we likely need a separate secure JS runtime from Node.js at this point, especially given the outcome of this PR. Perhaps the process authority problem might be handled through code mods / security code analysis approaches.

[erights]

It should only be a few objects per compartment. If compartments are expensive enough to deter using them for safe module linkage, they weren't implemented right.

Perhaps the process authority problem might be handled through code mods / security code analysis approaches.

In a SES environment code can only dereference the process global of its compartment's global if

• It uses the name process as a free variable name, or
• if it obtains its global object, such as by globalThis, or
• It evaluates code which does any of these, using one of this compartment's evaluators (eval, Function).

The first can reliably be statically recognized. The other two are interesting.

I'm betting that separate compartments will prove to be the more practical way to give different modules access to different global bindings of process, as well as the absence of such a binding.

All top-level lookups being deoptimized (as in they can't be inlined on hotpaths) due to the top-level context wrapper managing this is exactly the performance reason this PR can't move forward. I'd expect SES suffers from the same issue.

If the builtins are shared between the compartment wrappers then it can be done performantly apart from that, but until v8 optimize the top-level context that seems like the major common issue.

The binding escape analysis needed both in build tool optimizations and security analysis are very similar problems, and interesting ones indeed.

The SES shim will definitely suffer from this issue. However, SES is a proposal. Once accepted, the platform will directly support Compartments. There's no reason for platform supported compartments to have any extra overheads.

I don't understand this sentence. Clarify? Thanks.

Fortunately, SES and the SES shim do not rely on any additional static analysis, and so work soundly despite the notorious difficulty of statically analyzing JavaScript.

Our transitions plans do rely on @bmeck 's TOFU analysis, but this need only be approximate. Neither TOFU failures of inclusion or exclusion make the security enforcement unsound. Though of course, TOFU imprecisions impede the process of getting the code working again in a much more secure manner.

[dtribble]

Actually, if process is added to the "optimizer" for the SES shim in the a compartment to which it is authorized, then it should be fast and not disrupt any fast execution path for that variable. The ability to have key global "endowments" added to the optimizer is crucial and on the roadmap.

[erights]

Note that the optimizer mechanism is only appropriate when the property is a non-configurable, non-writable data property, since this guarantees that its value won't change. The Realm shim optimizer mechanism will notice this and shadow it with a const declaration of the same name and value. This is actually faster than a regular global.

[guybedford]

The problem with the optimization approach is:

1. Code that does const process = global.process or similar throws for redefinition of the binding. This can be worked around by catching the redefinition error at compilation and falling back to the slow path, but then....
2. Exactly as @erights mentions we still need to support APM use cases such as global.process = instrument(process) assignment, process = customProcess assignment affecting all global.process accesses.

These hard backwards compatibility constraints mean the optimizations approaches can't work in Node.js. The issues will likely also be hit for a secure Node.js environment that wants to support third-party packages, but perhaps they are a bit more relaxed for a security-focused project on top of Node - SES likely doesn't need to support (2) apart from possibly through an attenuation phase that could be locked down.

The slow paths in this PR are also not for the hits though - the slow paths are for the fall-throughs. Because we have an inner context, falling back to the outer global. The test case brought up was with the use of JSON.parse where the JSON lookup was deoptimized due to process and Buffer in the context.

Ideally, the optimization we would need from v8 here would be that Object.seal(context) would know that anything not in the list of properties of the context can be optimized, instead of blanket deoptimizing everything. In theory that is trivial to do and fully compatible, which is so frustrating, because it's really just an engine optimization that is holding us back due to a sheer lack of being able to approach that engine work.

I guess this fallthrough case doesn't apply to SES though actually since it only has the single wrapping of the context, instead of say a two-layer context. Although I'm still not sure I follow how process could be conditionally provided to packages without every package having an entirely distinct global, which seems like it might lead to some global instancing issues or bugs / large object allocations having global-per-module?

Would be great to discuss further, maybe we can add this as an agenda item to the coming SES meeting if there'd be time for it, or another place we can discuss to avoid continuing to pollute this thread.
