Fixed Detectors, Moving Code: How Well Do Static Security Analyzers Hold Up over a Decade of C/C++ Evolution?

Static application security testing (SAST) tools are often deployed on the assumption that detectors configured today will remain effective on future code, including previously unknown vulnerabilities. We test this assumption using 20,000 vulnerable and fixed C/C++ cases from 1,116 open-source projects (2016-2025), eva...
