Dataset for "Stack Overflow Meets Replication: Security Research Amid Evolving Code Snippets"

The repository houses the *data files* that support our USENIX Security paper, *Stack Overflow Meets Replication: Security Research Amid Evolving Code Snippets*. These data files are intended to be used in conjunction with our source artifact hosted on [GitLab](https://projects.cispa.saarland/alfusainey.jallow/usenix25-ae.git). The Python scripts in that repository rely on these data files to accurately reproduce and verify the claims made in our paper. To get started with this data artifact, please follow these steps:1. **Download** the data files from this repository.2. **Extract** the downloaded archive.3. **Move** all contents from the extracted folder into this `data` directory located in the GitLab repository root. Once these steps are completed, the scripts located in the `sources` folder will automatically locate and utilize the necessary files from this directory, ensuring a smooth and reproducible execution of our experiments.
