Lets start here:



Look at the part where Kabuto says about being impatient may cause the opposite effect of what Itachi really wants. Then it cuts straight to Madara.

That right there was foreshadowing Madara releasing Edo Tensei, and Kabuto KNEW that was going to happen. Wait, how?



We knew Madara lived until Nagato was young, he likely died around that time as well. Orochimaru probably just started to research forbidden jutsu and probably learned Edo Tensei then. So I'm fairly sure Madara and Orochimaru have met, and that is how Madara learned of Edo Tensei's seals.


Wait, didn't Madara learn it from Tobirama, the creator of the jutsu? I'm sure Tobirama has almost NEVER used this jutsu, maybe once to test it out. It requires a human sacrifice, and no one would allow a Hokage's brother/Hokage to use human sacrifices. Secondly, Tobirama or his brother made the jutsu forbidden for a reason, one shouldn't use forbidden jutsu, that's why its well... forbidden.

Another subtle hint:



Why in the WORLD would Kabuto call himself Tobi's assistant? Now, I maybe just speculating here, but does Kabuto have any allegiance to anyone besides Orochimaru? He might've very well known that Madara knows Orochimaru in some way, and he is the one who uses Edo Tensei, so Kabuto simply said I am his assistant.



This is complete speculation, but Madara is holding the back of his neck after a panel zoomed on Anko's neck, showing her Cursed Seal. That could very much be implying that Madara might have a Cursed Seal, this could mean only one thing: Orochimaru gave him it. Only Orochimaru has been shown to give Cursed Seals and Edo Tensei restores you to how you died.

tl;dr

Madara and Orochimaru very possibly know each other; which explains how Madara knows the seals of Edo Tensei and how he has a Cursed Seal on him.

That'd be pretty cool.

ever though that kabuto gave him the curse seal? hmm there goes your theory lol
Only Orochimaru has been shown to give Cursed Seals, they are fragments of Orochimaru's power, so I'd imagine that only Orochimaru could give them. You also appear as an Edo, as you died. Worst case scenario, that part is wrong, but there are plenty of other reasons why I believe that they know each other.

Kabuto didn't actually know Madara could break Edo Tensei. He just suspected that he could. Kabuto mentions earlier that he plans to use Madara as his final card and thus said that he was invincible. Which I guess implies that he did plan to fully take control over Madara. Like I said before, he only suspected that Madara could be able to break it since Madara is originally from Konoha and knows Edo Tensei. I guess he accounted that Madara would somehow know the seals for it. This is probably why Oro took full control over Hashirama and Tobirama from the get go.

Madara has stated before that Edo Tensei was originally used to wipe out the entire map. So Madara has indeed seen this ability before. I am guessing that the leaf still fought wars amongst other nations and obviously Madara and Tobirama probably fought on the same field together.
