Subsystem

node:v8

What steps will reproduce the bug?

import {serialize, deserialize} from 'node:v8';

const error = AbortSignal.abort().reason;
console.log(error instanceof DOMException); 
// true
console.log(error);
// DOMException [AbortError]: This operation was aborted
//     at new DOMException (node:internal/per_context/domexception:53:5)
//     at AbortSignal.abort (node:internal/abort_controller:205:14)
//     at ...

const clonedError = deserialize(serialize(error));
console.log(clonedError instanceof DOMException); 
// false
console.log(clonedError);
// {}

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

Always.

What is the expected behavior? Why is that the expected behavior?

A DOMException should be serializable/deserializable like other error instances.

What do you see instead?

Serializing/deserializing with v8 turns it into an empty plain object.

Additional information

Related: structuredClone(domException) returns an empty plain object, which is probably the same bug. This might be related to #49181.
