Apt and debootstrap authenticate files which they download. However, sometimes 
lb_build downloads files directly. Run `grep wget /usr/lib/live' to find some 
of the places where it is done.
When doing so, lb_build doesn't check if these files are original. An attacker 
can modify these files to affect the build process. For example, she can 
replace debian-installer kernel or initrd with arbitrary files 
(/usr/lib/live/build/binary_debian-installer).
