I believe that Harry's secret would be the same as the one his
parents tried to keep: his *location*. Voldemort didn't want
information, he wanted any threat to his livelihood destroyed.
Dubmledore would not be so foolhardy as to assume Voldemort could
never again present a threat to Harry or the rest of the wizarding
world, and would certainly have taken precautions against even a
remote possibility of you-know-who's return.
