Dobby knew because he belongs to the Malfoys...Lucius
Malfoy is the one who planted the diary on Ginny
Weaskey in Flourish and Blotts fully knowing what
would happen. He wanted to get Arthur fired at the
ministry so his Muggle Protection Act would never be
passed...what better way to ensure Arthur final demise
at the Ministry than to have one of his own children
be guilty of opening the chamber of secrets and
petrifiying and probably (if things had gone as Lucius
wanted them) killing students. As Winky tells us in
GoF, it is a house elf's job to keep her master's
secrets...and sometimes they overhear things as they
tend to their house-elfly duties (as Dobby thinks is
his reason for overhearing the staged Moody/Magonagall
conversation about gilly weed.) He probably overheard
Lucius' plotting somewhere around the manor.
