Referencing external dependency via `package.json` works for ESM, but not CJS

What steps will reproduce the bug?

Clone https://gist.github.com/remcohaszing/25c719651d340d9170dd75428dbcef8e

Given the following files:

// package.json
{
  "imports": {
    "#path": {
      "default": "path"
    }
  }
}

// index.cjs
require('#path')

// index.mjs
await import('#path')

Now run both scripts.

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

It reproduces consistently.

What is the expected behavior? Why is that the expected behavior?

Both scripts run and output nothing.

What do you see instead?

Running node index.mjs works fine, but node index.cjs throws:

node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1018
        throw e;
        ^

TypeError [ERR_INVALID_URL_SCHEME]: The URL must be of scheme file

}

Node.js v20.5.1

Referencing a relative path works fine though.

Additional information

There was some discussion in this Twitter thread.

Reproduisez le problème avec le package.json, index.cjs et index.mjs du gist, puis suivez la résolution CommonJS dans node:internal/modules/cjs/loader, en particulier finalizeEsmResolution. Le travail est terminé lorsque le mapping imports de package.json vers le path intégré fonctionne depuis les deux scripts sans ERR_INVALID_URL_SCHEME.
