HeroKit.FileTypes.AspNetCore

ASP.NET Core integration for HeroKit.FileTypes: safe upload checks for IFormFile in minimal APIs, MVC, Razor Pages and Blazor.

dotnet add package HeroKit.FileTypes.AspNetCore

Every check of UploadValidator runs: invalid file names, program or script content (also behind an image extension), hidden double extensions (a.php.jpg), content that does not fit the extension, macros in Office documents, script in SVG, size and allowed types.

Minimal APIs

using HeroKit.FileTypes;
using HeroKit.FileTypes.AspNetCore;

app.MapPost("/documents", (IFormFile file) => Results.Ok(file.GetSafeFileName()))
   .ValidateUploads(new UploadPolicy { AllowedTypes = [FileTypes.Pdf], MaxLength = 10 * 1024 * 1024 });

A rejected file stops the request before the handler runs. The response is 400 with a validation problem:

{ "errors": { "file": ["invoice.pdf: The content is a Windows executable."] } }

ValidateUploads also works on a route group and checks IFormFileCollection arguments.

MVC, Razor Pages and Blazor forms

public sealed class ProfileForm
{
    [Required, AllowedFileTypes("jpg", "png", "webp", MaxLength = 5 * 1024 * 1024)]
    public IFormFile? Photo { get; set; }
}

Anywhere

UploadCheckResult result = file.CheckUpload(policy);   // or validator.Validate(file) with a singleton UploadValidator
string displayName = file.GetSafeFileName();            // safe to store and to send as a download name
