The following types output by Magika on the Strelka test fixtures but are missing from backend.yml include the following. We should look at each and consider including them by default in their scanners (even disabled ones like ScanElf)
- application/javascript
- application/octet-stream
- application/vnd.debian.binary-package
- application/vnd.tcpdump.pcap
- application/x-apple-diskimage
- application/x-executable-elf
- application/x-mach-o
- application/x-ms-shortcut
- application/x-pem-file
- application/x-plist
- application/x-powershell (likely a false-positive type)
- application/x-yaml
- image/bmp
- text/csv
- text/vbscript
- video/mp4 (likely a false-positive type)

Instead of using new types introduced by Magika, I'd suggest using MIME type output so that existing definitions can be used, but (hopefully) better covered by Magika analysis.

At this point, I'd make typing with libmime, yara, and Magika clearly and independently configurable so that users have more control over how files get typed.

Magika offers extra features that we should probably expose. For example, the PredictionMode
should be user configurable (defaults to High). We could output the confidence score as well so analysts can get context for odd files.
Describe the change
This change is still in draft, but the idea was to add another form of file tasting: Google Magika
Describe testing procedures
Built and tested against files - no known issues with file tasting outside perhaps misattribution (no errors)
The only error comes with
import "magic"
insidetaste.yara
and any yara that usesmagic
. A conflict?Sample output
