What steps will reproduce the bug?

Unfortunately I am unable to provide a minimal reproduction repository.

I am running my code via VS-Codium's native debugging (launch.json) and on recent versions I receive Segmentation fault (core dumped). When I execute the same command (the console output of the command VS-Codium runs, but without VS-Codium attaching its native debugger to node) on command line the application executes as expected.

The command VS-Codium executes is the following;

/usr/bin/env TS_NODE_PROJECT=/path/to/tsconfig.json 'ENV_ONE=VALUE_ONE' 'ENV_TWO=VALUE_TWO' ENV_THREE=VALUE_THREE ENV_FOUR=VALUE_FOUR 'NODE_OPTIONS= --require /usr/share/codium/resources/app/extensions/ms-vscode.js-debug/src/bootloader.js  --inspect-publish-uid=http' 'VSCODE_INSPECTOR_OPTIONS=:::{"inspectorIpc":"/tmp/node-cdp.83350-f9cd27da-1.sock","deferredMode":false,"waitForDebugger":"","execPath":"/usr/local/bin/node","onlyEntrypoint":false,"autoAttachMode":"always","fileCallback":"/tmp/node-debug-callback-f9d390cd3c6fd40d"}' /usr/local/bin/node --require ts-node/register ./src/application/main.ts 

I am also using the n npm package to change node versions, so it is possible this is somehow an issue. That said, when I use n to switch to any version prior to 23.11.0, such as 23.10.0, everything works as expected.

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

Happens every time.

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

The application starts as normal, stopping on breakpoints within the code editor as with previous versions.

What do you see instead?

Output of node --version

v24.0.1

A possible red-herring, but could be related;

$ n i 24.0.1
     copying : node/24.0.1
   installed : v24.0.1 (with npm 11.3.0)

Note: the node command changed location and the old location may be remembered in your current shell.
         old : /usr/bin/node
         new : /usr/local/bin/node
If "node --version" shows the old version then start a new shell, or reset the location hash with:
hash -r  (for bash, zsh, ash, dash, and ksh)
rehash   (for csh and tcsh)
