Bug #64462 [NEW]: Bug in libmagic included with fileinfo extension
From: vitalif at mail dot ru
Operating system:
PHP version: 5.5.0alpha5
Package: Filesystem function related
Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:Bug in libmagic included with fileinfo extension
Description:
------------
Hello!
First of all I want to say that libmagic included with fileinfo extension
is 2 YEARS OLD and has bugs - you should UPDATE it to something like 5.13.
Also it would be good if you submit your libmagic fixes to UPSTREAM (to
libmagic author) - at least some of them.
And also I want to tell you about a specific bug - your libmagic detects
all MSOffice documents unknown to it as "application/msword". For example,
any Visio (CDF) document is detected as "application/msword", which is
incorrect. This bug was in libmagic 5.11, but is already fixed in 5.13.
I would propose updating the included libmagic, but if you don't want to do
it you can just apply a simple patch (attached). With it Visio and all
other unknown files are detected as application/vnd.ms-office which is more
correct.
