Bug 213371 – A possible bug of String.prototype.replace

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: WONTFIX
• Component: JavaScriptCore

[NWU_NISL]

### Version: d940b47

### Testcase:
var NISLFuzzingFunc = function () {
    var a =  function (r) {
        return this[r];
    };
    print(a());
    var b = 'A@B#C$D.E'.replace(/([^A-Z])/g, a);
    print(b);
};
NISLFuzzingFunc();

### Command:
./webkit/WebKitBuild/Release/bin/jsc testcase.js

### Output:
undefined
AundefinedBundefinedC[object Object]DundefinedE

### Expected output:
undefined
AundefinedBundefinedCundefinedDundefinedE

### Description:
For String.prototype.replace (searchValue, replaceValue ), if the second parameter is a function, the matched string should be replaced with the return value of this function. When executing this test case, "$" should also be replaced with the return value of the function(undefined), but javascriptCore replaced it with [object Object]. I think this may be a bug of javascriptCore.

"$" is substituted with the value of `globalThis.$`, which is exposed to JSC shell (we use it in JSTests/stress), but not to the web.
If provided test case is executed in Chrome DevTools, "$" is also substituted with `document.querySelector` helper.
