Bug Description

A current AWS image and also GCE images for Pro FIPS do have UDP port 500 and 4500 open by default:

# cat /etc/cloud/build.info
build_name: pro-fips-server
serial: 20240107

# lsof -i -n -P|grep charon
charon 10959 root 9u IPv6 61015 0t0 UDP *:500
charon 10959 root 10u IPv6 61016 0t0 UDP *:4500
charon 10959 root 11u IPv4 61017 0t0 UDP *:500
charon 10959 root 12u IPv4 61018 0t0 UDP *:4500

That's against the default policy for Ubuntu cloud images which should only have 22/TCP (ssh) open.
