Proxy startup timeout can block indefinitely
Medium Severity
_parse_listening_port uses blocking proxy_process.stdout.read(1) inside a deadline loop. If mitmdump stays alive but does not emit a byte on stdout, the read blocks and the timeout is never enforced, so tests can hang instead of failing fast.

I enabled PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1 exactly for this reason, and mitdump always prints at the start. I think this is a fair assumption. If this turns out to be pathological, we can start with IO-multiplexing or a thread with a timer. Until then i prefer the simple solution.

Bug: A deadlock can occur because the code performs a blocking read on the subprocess's stdout while never reading from stderr, potentially causing the stderr buffer to fill and block the process.
Severity: CRITICAL
Suggested Fix
To prevent a deadlock, use non-blocking I/O to read from both the stdout and stderr streams of the subprocess concurrently. This ensures that the stderr buffer does not fill up and block the subprocess from writing to stdout. Consider using select.select or threads to handle both streams.

Potential issue: The function `_parse_listening_port` initiates a subprocess with both
`stdout` and `stderr` pipes. It then performs a blocking read on `stdout` via
`proxy_process.stdout.read(1)` but never reads from `stderr`. If the subprocess writes
enough data to fill the `stderr` pipe's buffer, it will block. This, in turn, prevents
it from writing to `stdout`, causing the parent process to wait indefinitely on the
`read(1)` call. This creates a deadlock, and the timeout check `while time.monotonic() <
deadline` becomes ineffective because the loop is stuck on the blocking I/O call,
causing the test to hang.
Did we get this right? 👍 / 👎 to inform future reviews.


I often encounter issues when running proxy integration tests because required ports are already in use, which leads to various errors.
