arXiv:2609.28725v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning-based Network Intrusion Detection Systems often report near-perfect performance on IoT benchmarks. However, whether these models learn generalizable attack behavior or exploit spurious dataset shortcuts- such as static testbed IP/MAC addresses and chronological recording artifacts-remains an important question.
