Rotation misuse

An attacker could update the secret to:

• Stop rotations so the secret won't be modified
• Make rotations much less often so the secret won't be modified
• Publish the rotation message to a different pub/sub
• Modify the rotation code being executed. This happens in a different service, probably in a Cloud Function, so the attacker will need privileged access over the Cloud Function or any other service.
