Systems and methods for providing a contextual message for a web-based service

A computer-implemented method to detect malformed arguments in a function by hooking a generic object, is described. A predetermined argument to monitor is identified. An activity associated with a calling of a function to produce a called out function is detected. The called out function is mapped to a class identification of an object. An argument in the called out function is compared with the predetermined argument. When a match exists, a virtual method table identification is recorded for the called out function. The match between the argument in the called out function and the predetermined argument is reported.
