I figured out two solutions:

Solution 1:
while read line ;do
CUT=`echo "$line" | sed 's/^.* //g'`
md5sum $CUT
done < INFPUT_FILE

Solution 2:
while read checksum file ;do
md5sum "$file"
done < INPUT_FILE

Thanks everyone

gst-md5sum-0.8

gst-md5sum-0.8(1)						   User Commands						 gst-md5sum-0.8(1)

NAME

       gst-md5sum-0.8, gst-md5sum - get an md5sum of a GStreamer pipeline through md5sink

SYNOPSIS

       gst-md5sum-0.8 [--verbose] [gst-std-options] [partial-pipeline-description]

       gst-md5sum [--verbose] [gst-std-options] [partial-pipeline-description] [--gst-list-mm] [--gst-mm=string] [--print]

DESCRIPTION

       gst-md5sum-0.8 generates MD5 checksums of the data generated by a GStreamer pipeline.

       In theory, both of the following commands should print out the same checksum:

       gst-md5sum-0.8 filesrc location=music.mp3

       md5sum music.mp3

       If  the	pipeline  contains  an md5sink element, gst-md5sum-0.8 queries it for the md5sum at the end of pipeline iteration. If the pipeline
       does not contain an md5sink element, gst-md5sum-0.8 automatically connects an md5sink to the right-hand side of the given pipeline.

       See gst-launch(1) or the GStreamer documentation for more information on how to create a partial-pipeline-description.

       gst-md5sum is a wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-md5sum-X.X. For  example,  if  both  gst-md5sum-0.7  and  gst-
       md5sum-0.8 are installed on your system, gst-md5sum runs gst-md5sum-0.8.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported by gst-md5sum-0.8 and gst-md5sum:

       --verbose       Output verbose information. You can also use -v to specify this option.

       gst-std-options Standard options available for use with most GStreamer applications.  See gst-std-options(5) for more information.

       The following options are supported by gst-md5sum only:

       --gst-list-mm   List found major/minor versions. This option displays the versions that are available.

       --gst-mm=string Force  major/minor  version.  This  option  enables you to specify a specific version to run, if you do not want to run the
		       default version.

       --print	       Print wrapped command line. This option displays the command that will be run, and then runs the command.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       partial-pipelinePartialppipeline description.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Running the Wrapper Script and Displaying the Command Name

       example% gst-md5sum --print
       /usr/bin/gst-md5sum-0.8

FILES

       The following files are used by this application:

       /usr/bin/gst-md5sum-0.8 Executable for GNOME help browser

       /usr/bin/gst-md5sum     Wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-md5sum-X.X
