It is vulnerable to sybil attacks or where the recipient is a victim of a proxy attack.  If the recipient is not connected to a valid Network, then double spends could be allowed.

 as long as this protocol is intended for use of transactions around a dollar or so I don't see that being a financially lucrative attack.

However consider a large department store.  If I put a "fence" around that store and control all of its outbound peer connections, I can then allow double spends for the duration of my visit at the store.

In order to defend against this large retailers would have to use distributed / trusted nodes and certificates.
