Magpie:
It's canon that Dumbledore knew what was going on with Draco. He tells 
him he knew what he was doing, and earlier tells Harry he knows more 
about what's up with Draco than Harry does. He tells Draco that the 
reason he did not confront him before the tower (though he did have 
Snape tailing him to try to head off any of his murder attempts, which 
didn't work because Draco wouldn't open up to Snape) was that he knew 
Draco would have been murdered if Lord Voldemort realised Dumbledore 
suspected him (Draco). He says he did not dare speak to him of the 
mission with which he knew he'd been entrusted in case LV used 
Legilimency against him.
