CREATE2 factory permits same-address redeploy
Convex Finance's assessment for RD-F-144 — scored green on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
No CREATE2-based deployment pattern found in core contracts. Standard CREATE deployment used for all core platform contracts (Booster, VoterProxy, CVX, BoosterOwner). Reward contracts for pools are deployed by factory contracts but not via CREATE2 in a way that permits same-address redeployment with different bytecode.

Methodology #
Determine whether a CREATE2 factory deployment allows redeployment to the same address with different bytecode (via selfdestruct + redeploy pattern).
