The only difference between accessing a filesystem directly and through CacheFS should be that the CacheFS can store copies of the accessed data on a local block device. In other words that there's a (potentially persistent) footprint of all accesses.
Other than that CacheFS should preserve the same permissions semantics as if a given user/host were accessing the backend filesystem/service directly.
