::DESCRITION::
- Vulnerabilities related to the upload of unexpected file types is unique in that the upload should quickly reject a file if it does not have a specific extension. Additionally, this is different from uploading malicious files in that in most cases an incorrect file format may not by it self be inherently "malicious" but may be detrimental to the saved data. 
- The application may be expecting only certain file types to be uploaded for processing, such as mpeg4, ogv, ogg, 3gp, webm, gif, mkv, flv, drc, mng, avi,... files. The application may not validate the uploaded file by extension (for low assurance file validation) or content (high assurance file validation).
