Preconditions:
Magento 2.4-develop
Php 7.3
_fileinfo_ php extension is disabled
Steps to reproduce:
Actual Result: :heavy_multiplication_x: Error: Call to undefined function _mime_content_type()_
:heavy_multiplication_x: An error is shown: "File validation failed." No image is uploaded.

Expected Result: :heavy_check_mark: An image must be uploaded without errors

The temp uploaded file, i.e., '/tmp/sdfds5we23e', which has no extension, is trying to get the extension thus failing to verify against the validTypes array

Hello @posttechguy thank you for your report! I'm not able to reproduce issue on clean Magento 2.3.2 .
Manual testing scenario:

Actual result:
Image uploaded without any errors

So i have to close this issue. If you have more info please update your issue.
Hi @engcom-Charlie I can confirm that the file upload does not work on 2.3-develop. The reason is that the mime_content_type is removed in 7.1, and while it is checked to see if it exists the getFileExtension is not retrieving the ext because when the file is uploaded to /tmp directory, it saves it without an extension. So there is now way to ascertain whether the file is valid or not.
I have tried it on PHP 7.2.16 also

I have also found this bug, on PHP 7.2.16

@posttechguy: installing the fileinfo php extension should solve your issue.
In my opinion the fileinfo extension needs to get added to the requirements in the composer.json file of Magento's Framework and the composer.json file of the CMS module
Interested in creating a pull request for this?
Thanks @hostep, that was my issue.
I have added a PR for the issue
Cheers
Adding the fileinfo extension fixed my issue too. This should be added to the requirements page:

@Noman77: please read all the comments, the workaround for now is to install the fileinfo php extension.
