I think lisp calls to set-file-modes should also be checked carefully.

Would you like to check some of them?  The crucial question is, does a
call to set-file-modes introduce a worse problem than what existed
anyway.  For instance, if someone could put a hardlink where you will
chmod it, could he also put a hardlink where you will write the
contents of the file?  In cases where the latter problem exists,
adding the former problem to it does not really make things any worse.
