I'm not a network person so I won't even attempt to answer that.

I'm not aware of any OpenVZ-specific CVEs in the ~12 years that Virtuozzo and 
OpenVZ have existed.  I do not claim there have never been security issues... 
because I have no idea.

I'd recommend you read the wiki page that discusses the differences between 
venet and veth... because it doesn't sound like you have read it:

Again, not that I'm aware of... in the 12 years... but then again my 
familiarity with this stuff only started about 6.5 years ago.
