Gareth Carter commented on OFBIZ-6702:
--------------------------------------
Seems like firefox will honour Content-Disposition: attachment, I am sure others will.
If IE (or any other browser) does mime type sniffing then potentially setting Content-Disposition to inline may mean javascript could execute if the determined mime type is text/html. Ofbiz itself could sniff the mime type when files are uploaded. Even validated against the mime type determined by the file extension.
The solution you propose is a good fit, it atleast keeps the same behaviour with the option to change. Might I suggest content.properties instead of general.properties
> Update SimpleContentViewHandler to return mime type on file extension and use inline for content-disposition

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-6702> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: content
> Affects Versions: Trunk
> Reporter: Gareth Carter
> Priority: Trivial
> Attachments: SimpleContentViewHandler.java.patch, UtilHttp.java.patch
>
>
> SimpleContentViewHandler will return mime type 'text/html' for all DataResource values without a specified mimeTypeId. Changing to DataResourceWorker.getMimeType will allow determining the mimeTypeId by file extension
> Fixing the mime type will allow the browsers to display content inline if UtilHttp is updated aswell. All unknown extensions will be set to octet-stream causing the browser to prompt for download
