Comment (by komzpa):

 Anything calling GEOS is not going to be leakproof, as GEOS tends to raise
 exceptions with 'invalid intersection at coordinate'. So some kind of
 'take invalid geometry and try to intersect it with the world' with long
 enough bisection lets you get geometry out of db even if it's behind
 security barrier.
