Hi Team,

Like the question in the title, for AEM Assets uploading, Is it using magic numbers filtering in order to validate only true type of files upload, please?

Thanks.

Question is not clear. Do you have requirements to filter the file type while doing the upload?

FYI, I got the answer from Adobe Ticket Support. MagicNumberFileFilter is indeed used.
