What steps will reproduce the bug?
Create docker image that generates package.json and index.js in root of filesystem:
FROM node:14-alpine
RUN echo '{ "type": "module" }' > package.json
RUN echo 'import fs from "fs";' > index.js
CMD ["node", "index.js"]
Build and run the container:
docker build -t app .
docker run --rm appOutput:
(node:1) Warning: To load an ES module, set "type": "module" in the package.json or use the .mjs extension.
(Use `node --trace-warnings ...` to show where the warning was created)
/index.js:1
import fs from "fs";

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?
Always.
What is the expected behavior?
index.js should be loaded as es module because the nearest package.json has "type": "module" field.
What do you see instead?
index.js is being loaded as commonjs.
Additional information
If package.json and index.js are generated in some subdirectory - everything works. You can check it with the following image:
FROM node:14-alpine
# add workdir to generate files in /app not in /
WORKDIR app
RUN echo '{ "type": "module" }' > package.json
RUN echo 'import fs from "fs";' > index.js
CMD ["node", "index.js"]
The reason of such behavior is this line:
(separatorIndex = checkPath.lastIndexOf(path.sep)) > rootSeparatorIndex
When checkPath = '/index.js', both separatorIndex and rootSeparatorIndex are equals to 0 and condition does not pass.
