I knew there would be people who disagreed with the possibility, but 
I was more interested in discussing the "what if?" possibilities.  If 
you don't agree with the possibility of Voldemort gaining access in 
this manner, suppose then that Voldemort is in hiding near the area 
where Dumbledore informs some other character of the location of the 
headquarters.  In that manner, then Voldemort has access to the 
headquarters.  What do you think might happen then?
