Version

v16.15.0

Platform

Linux 99eba3b487e3 5.13.0-27-generic #29~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 14 00:32:30 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Subsystem

crypto/crypto_cipher.h:262:v8::Maybe node::crypto::CipherJob::ToResult(v8::Localv8::Value, v8::Localv8::Value)

What steps will reproduce the bug?

Test Script: <some_dir>/test/cryptoTest.js

// Test - See if we can do a basic example with 22.04 and node v16.15.0
// https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25725596/use-window-crypto-in-nodejs-code

const crypto = require('crypto').webcrypto;

var test = async () => {
	let iv = crypto.getRandomValues(new Uint8Array(16));
	let key = crypto.getRandomValues(new Uint8Array(16));
	let data = new Uint8Array(12345);
	//crypto functions are wrapped in promises so we have to use await and make sure the function that
	//contains this code is an async function
	//encrypt function wants a cryptokey object
	data[1] = 1;
	const key_encoded = await crypto.subtle.importKey(  "raw",    key.buffer,   'AES-CTR' ,  false,   ["encrypt", "decrypt"]);

	try{
		await crypto.subtle.encrypt(
			{
				name: "AES-CTR",
				counter: iv,
				length: 128
			},
			key_encoded,
			data
		).then((result) => {
			console.log(result);
		}).catch((err) => {
			console.error(err);
		});
	}
	catch(err){
		console.error(err);
	}
	
	console.log("done.");
}

test();

Steps to setup:

docker run -v $(pwd)/test/:/test/ -ti ubuntu:jammy /bin/bash

# --- in container --- 
apt update
# install node v16.15.0
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_16.x -o /tmp/nodesource_setup.sh
bash /tmp/nodesource_setup.sh
apt install nodejs
node -v
# 16.15.0
node cryptoTest.js
# .... errors ....

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

Reproducible only on Ubuntu 22.04, confirmed via host OS hard install and in docker for ubuntu 22.04 Jammy

What is the expected behavior?

When run in 20.04 (host OS and docker confirmed)

node cryptoTest.js
ArrayBuffer {
  [Uint8Contents]: <2d ec 99 71 e3 a6 41 2e 4b 65 d4 f8 38 57 f3 4b b5 cb cd e4 ab b9 77 d8 b8 ba aa aa 04 f5 1b e8 3a ec 2e a8 87 a8 c2 90 9a 84 32 af 60 c8 e4 3d eb 36 3f 4f 70 34 10 3a a2 02 08 ac 24 97 c8 d2 51 60 ff a7 3b 1c 26 c3 0f 4f d5 54 50 6e ad fc 84 35 65 61 15 cb 20 7f bf eb cf 76 05 27 a2 59 08 6d 45 37 ... 12245 more bytes>,
  byteLength: 12345
}
done.

What do you see instead?

When run in 22.04 (host OS and docker confirmed)

Additional information

A quick mini example is based off:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25725596/use-window-crypto-in-nodejs-code

This issue was found in production code dealing with subtle, decrypt. The toy example is just to make the issue more concrete and easier to test. We are seeing this issue with other methods, AES-CTR, AES-GCM
