Repo CI https://github.com/TooTallNate/node-weak/blob/master/.github/workflows/test.yml does not include any currently supported Node.js versions.
Cloning the repo and running local tests using Ubuntu 26.04.1 LTS and running under Node.js 22, 24 & 26 confirm the compatibility issues for Node.js 24 & 26.

Run https://github.com/nodejs/citgm/actions/workflows/test-module.yml
Module to test: weak
CITGM repository to checkout: nodejs/citgm
CITGM GitHub ref to checkout: main

Suggestion
Considering the 10 year old age of the latest release weak@1.0.1 and the low weekly downloads figure (8,274), I suggest to retire
