It’s probably worth doing a very thorough audit of how you’re handling user-uploaded files, it’s full of non-obvious footguns.

I bet you don’t know the MIME type for MS Word doc off the top of your head. Do you?

So why would I take your advice on this topic?

I bet there are 1000 other things you don’t know about file uploads.

The LLM does know, and if I think it looks weird I can research it manually.
