The includeChain integration server ran getPeerCertificate(true) over the shared global agent; under TLS 1.3 a resumed session restores only the leaf and drops issuerCertificate, so the assertion failed whenever the client reused a cached session. SSL_OP_NO_TICKET on the test server forces a full handshake.

WalkthroughThe mTLS chain integration test constrains the server to TLS 1.2 and captures handshake, TLS, peer-certificate, X509, and certificate-comparison diagnostics. It logs these diagnostics when ChangesmTLS test configuration
Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR changes mTLS test setup to avoid incomplete peer certificate chains, but the current test sequence does not force session resumption, so it does not demonstrate that the targeted regression is covered. Merge readiness is moderate until the required server option is restored or the test explicitly exercises and asserts resumption; certificate-inspection diagnostics also need owner awareness. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 2✅ Passed checks (2 passed)

Let certificate-inspection errors reach the outer handler.
When req.socket.getPeerX509Certificate() throws, the inner catch consumes the error, so capturedDiag.err is not recorded. Keep a typeof ... === 'function' guard for older runtimes, but remove the inner catch.

Node.js TLS documentation minVersion maxVersion secureOptions SSL_OP_NO_TICKET TLS 1.2 session resumption client certificate
💡 Result:
In Node.js, the tls module provides comprehensive support for TLS configuration, including version control, session management, and certificate handling [1][2]. Protocol Versions The minVersion and maxVersion options allow you to explicitly define the allowed TLS protocol versions (e.g., 'TLSv1.2', 'TLSv1.3') for both servers and clients [1][3]. These can be set in options objects passed to methods like tls.createServer() or tls.connect() [1][3]. Secure Options and SSL_OP_NO_TICKET The secureOptions field allows you to pass bitwise OR-ed constants to configure the OpenSSL context [1][3]. Specifically, to disable TLS session tickets on a server, you can supply require('node:constants').SSL_OP_NO_TICKET within the secureOptions property [1][4]. TLS Session Resumption Session resumption allows clients to reconnect without a full handshake [2]. - Client Side: Clients should listen for the 'session' event on the tls.TLSSocket to retrieve session data [5][2]. This data can then be provided to the session option of a subsequent tls.connect() call [5][2]. - Server Side: Servers must implement 'newSession' and 'resumeSession' event handlers to save and restore session data, often using a shared cache (like Redis) for load-balanced environments [5][2]. - TLS 1.3 vs. 1.2: For TLS 1.3, only ticket-based resumption is allowed by the protocol, and session data is sent after the handshake; therefore, applications must use the 'session' event [5][2]. The older getSession() method is only suitable for TLS 1.2 and below [5][2]. Client Certificates Client certificates are supported and are typically configured via the cert, key, and ca options in tls.connect() (for clients) or by setting requestCert: true and rejectUnauthorized: true in tls.createServer() (for servers) to enforce mutual TLS (mTLS) [1][3]. Security levels (e.g., @SECLEVEL=X) can be appended to cipher strings if necessary to accommodate legacy protocols or specific security requirements [1][6].

Restore SSL_OP_NO_TICKET for this test.
minVersion and maxVersion only constrain protocol negotiation. They do not disable TLS session tickets. The current request sequence does not force session resumption, so it cannot prove the session-ticket mitigation. Restore secureOptions: crypto.constants.SSL_OP_NO_TICKET if disabling session tickets is required.

Superseded by #226. The real cause was an upstream Node regression (nodejs/node#65579), not session resumption; #226 guards the test against it and documents it. |
getPeerCertificate(true)over the sharedhttps.globalAgent. Under TLS 1.3 a resumed session restores only the leaf and dropsissuerCertificate, so Node 26 CI failed intermittently on a docs-only change.SSL_OP_NO_TICKETon the test server forces a full handshake.The suite passes either way (the flake is intermittent), so verified out of band with a forced-resumption harness: baseline 39/40 connections resumed and lost the chain; with the fix 0/40.
