I mean, can this be a fire hazard, what about the insulation breakdown on the 
secondary winding etc..



Most transformers have a voltage rating on ALL windings that is greater than several times the line voltage (e.g. 600V), and most undergo some sort of HiPot test as well, at several kV.

If you're ripping the transformer out of some value engineered low cost piece of gear (like a $20 sprinkler timer), you might be worried about the LV winding. But anything sold as a standalone transformer.
