ieeesp-reproducibility

Use when hardening the reproducibility of an IEEE S&P (Oakland) paper's evidence before submission, including environment pinning for exploits and side channels, seed and trial reporting for probabilistic attacks, measurement snapshotting of live systems, and honest availability statements under ethical release limits.

# IEEE S&P Reproducibility

Use this while the evidence is being produced — months before
`ieeesp-artifact-evaluation` packages it. Security results decay in ways ML
results do not: targets get patched, infrastructure changes, and an attack
that "worked in March" can be unreproducible by review time. Reproducibility
at S&P is first about **freezing the world you measured**.

## Freeze the target, not just the code

| Evidence type | What must be pinned | Decay risk if not |
|---|---|---|
| Software exploit | Target version, build flags, distro, patch level | Silent fix ships mid-review |
| Microarchitectural attack | CPU model + stepping, microcode, OS mitigations state | Microcode update changes timing |
