Title:
  Rootwrap configuration has incorrect ownership

Status in openstack-ansible:
  Fix Committed
Status in openstack-ansible kilo series:
  Confirmed
Status in openstack-ansible liberty series:
  In Progress
Status in openstack-ansible trunk series:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The /etc/<openstack_service>/rootwrap.conf file and
  /etc/<openstack_service>/rootwrap.d directory and its contents created
  by the Nova, Neutron, Cinder and Ceilomer playbooks/roles are
  incorrectly owned by a user other than root.

  This is a security vulnerability inasmuch as it may allow users with
  lower privileges to modify the rootwrap configuration and escalate
  privileges.
