The issue comes from iface.uc line no 183:

let pipe = fs.popen(`ucode /usr/share/hostap/wdev.uc ${phy} get_macaddr id=${mac_idx} num_global=${num_global_macaddr} mbssid=${data.mbssid ?? 0} macaddr_base=${macaddr_base}`);

It looks like that it isn't possible to send a null pointer through a pipe. Anything is converted to a string.
