IPC crashes between node 10.6.0 and electron

[ventsislav-georgiev]

• Electron Version: 2.0.4
• Operating System (Platform and Version): Windows
• Last known working Electron version: None

Expected Behavior
Spawning a node process (not an electron process fork but an external node) with ipc should be able to send and receive messages.

Actual behavior
On child process send the main process throws an error inside child_process.js:

To Reproduce
See electron-node-ipc

Additional Details
Here is how the chunk looks with node 10.5.0 (which works as expected):

So it seems like the first 7 characters of the message are lost.
Posted an issue in the node repo also: nodejs/node#21671

This has been fixed in latter versions of NodeJS. - nodejs/node#21671
