Well, the answer is yes but the unfortunate problem is we don't have a good way to get around it in an expeditious way. Fortunately, where this is needed for x509 based XRootD TPC is for source selection and that is inherently much less dangerous since if there is any kind of spoofing the checksum should catch it in the end. It also helps that XRootD TPC only allows pull requests which minimizes (though does not eliminate) the severity of the exposure.
