The hash algorithm would be the least of my concerns about the security
of these signatures.

IIUC, the secret signing key is stored on a machine that is connected to
the network (Infra, please correct me if I'm wrong). So there are other
more likely attack vectors than a preimage attack on a 512 bit hash
function.
