Regression in handling of 0 values for google.protobuf.Int64Value types (and maybe others)

[shidel-dev]

What version of protobuf and what language are you using?
Version: Ruby 3.11.2

What did you do?
Simplified/Minimal Example.

message Wrapper {
  google.protobuf.Int64Value id = 1;
}

  Wrapper.decode(Wrapper.new( id: Google::Protobuf::Int64Value.new( value: 0) ).to_proto)

OUTOUT <Wrapper: id: nil>

What did you expect to see?
<Wrapper: id: <Google::Protobuf::Int64Value: value: 0>>

What did you see instead?
<Wrapper: id: nil>
Make sure you include information that can help us debug (full error message, exception listing, stack trace, logs).

Anything else we should know about your project / environment?

This works on version 3.7.1 of the gem as expected. This is a very dangerous bug in my opinion, as it can break applications...

[shidel-dev]

This is working as expected in 3.10.1 so it is just an issue in the two 3.11.X releases

[shidel-dev]

Both versions encode the same, so it seems like an issue with decoding

I've seen this behavior too, and reproduced it in a test a while ago, #7037 . No response yet on that though

[shidel-dev]

Thanks @djquan, I missed those other issues. This is probably a duplicate of #7029. This should probably have more attention than it is getting. This can cause serious bugs, as 0 values get dropped. It nearly caused a serious issue at my job.

[djquan]

Totally agree, it also almost caused an issue for us too

This was fixed in #7195. Sorry about that!
