There are various downloads that we need to consider:

(A) Downloads of Sage-the-distribution source/binary tarballs
(B) Cloning the git repo
(C) Downloading tarballs while building from the git repo

I think that (A) should be our primary worry, since those are usually not checked by anybody. For (B) I have no idea. And (C) is pretty well protected by the SHA-1 hashes.

And of course there are other security issues such as

(D) People getting malicious code into Sage
(E) People developing a malicious package and getting that into Sage
