Public scientific and metrology releases can leak the hidden settings that produced them. We formalize and quantify this risk as a profiled statistical side-channel audit: a release map exposes finite-band statistics of a power spectral density (PSD), a profiled observer trains labeled template spectra under an explicit budget, and a challenge release is drawn from one of two utility-equivalent recipes separated by a protected coordinate. Averaged PSD bins follow a gamma channel, replaced by a covariance-weighted log-spectrum channel when the bins are correlated; this yields exact Kullback-Leibler divergences, Chernoff exponents, protected-bit advantage bounds, and finite-training, finite-library, finite-compute, and model-mismatch corrections. Our headline result is a finite-band transport-leakage law: after amplitude and blur are eliminated, the protected acid-transport information obeys $I_{λ|α,β}(K) = (64/1225)\, w λ^{6} K^{9} + O(w λ^{8} K^{11})$ for $Kλ\ll 1$, a ninth-order exponent with a closed-form safe band. A step-by-step protocol turns a measured release into these numbers, and a fixed-seed reproducibility package regenerates every table and figure. We instantiate the audit on screened extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) roughness spectra as a model-conditioned case study, with deployment on measured releases the next step.
