There should be a referenced gpg key somewhere. Quick google shows it as
https://www.debian.org/CD/verify . You'll need one (or all) of the noted
keys, then you can use gpg to verify the sig.  

The command

  gpg --verify MD5SUMS.sign

should be good enough, assuming the public keys are on your keyring, and
your web-of-trust is sufficient to validate the keys (or you've marked
the keys as trusted in some manner).

That being said, MD5 hashes are considered "weak" these days, and it is
generally recommended to verify with SHA256 hashes instead.
