You'd be exposed nearly to the same attack vectors. Plus some more (the

So what about using that free USB stack for AVR's to implement a flash
device? You would be able to audit about everything; flylogic even has
these nice pictures of the ATmega88 masks...
Sorry, I don't follow your reasoning here.
Pete proposed to use an USB-to-Serial interface to avoid attacks against
the USB stack on the PC. Why should an AVR be used to implement a flash
device?
Maybe Pete meant such an USB-to-Serial interface

Nevertheless this seems quite tricky to handel. Is it better to use a CD-RW
to transfer data between an offline and an online PC than to use an ordinary
USB stick?
Which other medium might be good?
Kind regards,
Jan
