Object.prototype had no own __proto__ accessor, so hasOwnProperty,
Object.hasOwn, getOwnPropertyNames, getOwnPropertyDescriptor,
Reflect.ownKeys, and the in operator all disagreed with Node about it.
Install a real { get, set, enumerable: false, configurable: true }
accessor descriptor on Object.prototype (gate-neutral, so no dynamic
property read/write fast path is affected), backed by the existing
js_object_get_prototype_of / Annex B legacy setPrototypeOf logic.
Also fixes a latent receiver-binding gap in
primitive_builtin_prototype_property's inherited-property fallback,
exposed by the new accessor: an accessor inherited transitively from
Object.prototype through a primitive's builtin wrapper prototype (e.g.
Number.prototype) was invoked with this bound to the intermediate
prototype object instead of the original primitive receiver.

accessor_receiver_override_begin and js_object_get_field_by_name, root the
previous override with a RuntimeHandleScope before invoking the getter-capable
lookup, then restore the updated rooted value through

js_closure_alloc and js_object_set_field_by_name to use a RuntimeHandleScope:
root proto_obj before allocating getter, root getter before allocating setter,
and root setter after allocation; re-read rooted handles before each metadata or
field operation, and compute get_bits/set_bits only after placeholder insertion
completes.

Root the displaced accessor override during the recursive lookup.
accessor_receiver_override_begin returns the existing outer receiver from the thread-local override cell. That receiver can be a GC-managed pointer. js_object_get_field_by_name can invoke a getter, which can trigger moving collection. The GC updates the rooted cell, but not the raw prev_override local. Restoring that local can publish a stale pointer.

Root the accessor installation state across allocations.
js_closure_alloc can move the existing getter while allocating setter. The placeholder field insertion reaches ensure_key_in_keys_array, which allocates and can move proto_obj. The later descriptor installation then uses raw pointers and closure bits that may be stale.
Create a RuntimeHandleScope before the first closure allocation. Root proto_obj before that allocation, root getter before allocating setter, and root setter after its allocation. Re-read the handles before each metadata and field operation. Compute get_bits and set_bits only after the placeholder insertion returns.

Throw for null and undefined reflected setter receivers.
The direct reflected setter path passes an explicitly supplied null or undefined receiver to legacy_dunder_proto_set. reflect_value_is_object(receiver) then skips the prototype update and returns normally. The setter must throw TypeError for both receivers. Ordinary object prototype assignment is not affected.
Add the null and undefined receiver check before valid_proto, and add parity tests for both receivers.

Pushed the cfg-gated fix and read CI's own cargo-test job on the real failing runner: green (run 35433215970) where the unconditional perry_thread_local! swap was red (run 35374727647), same commit otherwise. That settles causation directly, superseding the local repro attempts (macOS both arms, qemu Linux) which all came back clean and were inconclusive on their own -- including a qemu-VM A/B whose two SIGKILLs were momentarily misread as a reproduced crash before being traced to an operator pkill -f self-match, not a fault. Also resolves why cargo-test stayed green on #10644/#10647/#10650/ #10651 against the same base: none of them touch shadow_stack.rs, and this PR was never merged to main, so their runs never contained the change at all.

Close-keywords in a source PR body never fire under this scheme, so the issues this train resolved were closed from the train's body instead. The tree passed: all nine cheap gates, |

Pushed the cfg-gated fix and read CI's own cargo-test job on the real failing runner: green (run 35433215970) where the unconditional perry_thread_local! swap was red (run 35374727647), same commit otherwise.

Summary
Object.prototypehad no own__proto__accessor property, so every reflection API disagreed with Node about it:hasOwnProperty.call(Object.prototype, "__proto__"),Object.hasOwn,Object.getOwnPropertyNames,Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor,Reflect.ownKeys, and"__proto__" in {}all reported it missing. That let ahasOwnProperty.call(Object.prototype, key)prototype-pollution guard (the idiomqsand similar libraries use) treat"__proto__"as an ordinary, unguarded key.Root cause
crates/perry-runtime/src/object/descriptor_state.rs:454(object_proto_may_intercept_key) andcrates/perry-runtime/src/proxy.rs(ordinary_set_with_receiver, the#6828special case) already implement__proto__behaviorally — reads and writes reparent correctly — but purely as magic-key special-casing in the[[Set]]/interception-check paths, never as a materialized descriptor inObject.prototype's own descriptor tables. Every reflection API reads those tables directly, so none of them ever saw it.Fixing that exposed a second, previously-unobservable bug:
crates/perry-runtime/src/object/field_get_set/accessors.rs'sprimitive_builtin_prototype_property(the fallback used when a primitive's dynamic property read misses its own builtin prototype, e.g.Number.prototype) recurses intojs_object_get_field_by_name(proto_ptr, key)to walk further up the chain, but did not preserve the original receiver across that recursive call. OnceObject.prototype.__proto__became a real, inherited accessor, that recursive call found and invoked it — bound to the intermediate prototype object (Number.prototype) instead of the original primitive — so(5).__proto__answeredObject.getPrototypeOf(Number.prototype)(Object.prototype) instead ofObject.getPrototypeOf(5)(Number.prototype). This was unreachable before this PR because nothing onObject.prototype's chain was ever a real accessor.The fix
crates/perry-runtime/src/object/global_this/proto_methods.rs: installsObject.prototype.__proto__as a real{ get, set, enumerable: false, configurable: true }accessor descriptor viaset_builtin_accessor_descriptor— the same gate-neutral mechanism already used for%TypedArray%.prototype.lengthand theSymbol.toStringTaginstall in fix(runtime): add Symbol.toStringTag to Web/runtime built-ins #10632, which deliberately does not flip the process-wideGLOBAL_DESCRIPTORS_IN_USE/ACCESSORS_IN_USEhot-path gates.__proto__was already treated as unconditionally interceptable byobject_proto_may_intercept_key/plain_custom_prototype_may_interceptbefore this change, so installing a real descriptor for it changes no hot-path gate this key didn't already trip — only what reflection sees. A placeholder field write precedes the descriptor install (mirroringperf_hooks::install_perf_getter) so the key also lands inObject.prototype's own keys array — required forgetOwnPropertyNames/hasOwnProperty/Reflect.ownKeys/Object.keysto see it at all, since the descriptor tables alone aren't consulted by enumeration.js_object_get_prototype_of(ToObject-style wrapper resolution for primitives, Proxy/Temporal/handle receivers, throws onnull/undefined).proxy::legacy_dunder_proto_set, a newpub(crate)function extracted from the#6828special case inproxy.rs'sordinary_set_with_receiver(previously inlined there) — both the real accessor's setter and that inlined fallback now call the one implementation, so they can't drift apart.own_set_descriptorfinds the new real descriptor before the walk reaches the inlined fallback, so that fallback is now a defensive dead branch forObject.prototypeitself (kept, since it is not provably unreachable for every path).crates/perry-runtime/src/proxy.rs: the extraction above; no behavior change to the write path.crates/perry-runtime/src/object/field_get_set/accessors.rs:primitive_builtin_prototype_propertywraps its recursivejs_object_get_field_by_name(proto_ptr, key)call withaccessor_receiver_override_begin/_end— the same thread-local overrideresolve_inherited_field_from_prototypealready uses for the identical one-level-up problem — so an accessor found further up the chain runs with the original primitive receiver, not the intermediate prototype object.Surgical diff: 3 files, no other crates touched.
