Comment (by davidsarah):

 Content-Type syntax is defined in
 [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2045#section-5.1]. It's a bit
 overcomplicated so I suggest just restricting to printable characters
 (ASCII 0x20..0x7E), and possibly imposing a maximum length. That should be
 sufficient to prevent splitting attacks (and buffer overflow attacks
 against carelessly written parsers).
