> But the risk is not completely eliminated, since the usage of the HSM itself may have become compromised. An attacker may have gained access to a system with HSM access and issued malicious signatures. If this should happen, a key replacement is most probably warranted.

Absolutely!  That said, I imagine any decent HSM can perform internal time-stamping, in which case only signatures before a certain point need to be invalidated.
