Title:
  Security groups attached to VMs makes it possible for hacked VM to
  modify its security

Status in OpenStack Neutron (virtual network service):
  Invalid
Status in OpenStack Security Advisories:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The security groups are associated with the VMs, rather than the
  routers.  So, if a hackers manages to get a root shell on a VM, they
  can change their security by modifying their iptable entries.

  If the security was attached to the network, rather than the VMs, such
  an exploit could be avoided.

  I do not have a POC for this issue.  But, according to the
  documentation I have been reading about how network security has been
  implemented in Open Stack, this is a potential issue.
