I agree with Joe that we can't really list all the possible attacks and mitigations. To that end, I propose the following text be added to the Security Considerations:

Some of the methods described (such as accessing over the web
with or without verifying the signature on the file) have different security properties;
users of the trust anchor file need to consider these when choosing whether to load the set of trust anchors.
