Public bug reported: On at least EC2 with cloud-init xenial release, the Ec2 datasource allows the EventType.BOOT event to update metadata and will regenerate network configuration on each boot. Cloud-init releases newer than Xenial are not affected since cloud-init will detect which datasource to use and does not perform searching.
