We are relying on the amazing marcel gem to do the heavy-lifting of mapping content types and extensions. However there seem to have an issue with the csv extension. Issue link => igorkasyanchuk/active_storage_validations#291.
It seems that a .csv file can have a text/csv, application/vnd.ms-excel or text/plain content type depending on the client's OS. As mentioned by @jessie19:
TL;DR On a Windows machine with Microsoft Excel installed, CSV files may have a MIME type of application/vnd.ms-excel rather than the RFC 4180 suggested type of text/csv. Symfony, in particular, will match that MIME type with an file extension of ‘xls’. That causes issues with file validation.
