OpenDocument Presentation Template (OTP) is an XML-based file format for presentation templates maintained by the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS). It serves as a blueprint for creating slide shows, primarily used by productivity suites like LibreOffice Impress and Apache OpenOffice to maintain consistent formatting and styles. As a ZIP-compressed container, the format is generally considered safe but may include macros that require validation by the host application to prevent potential security vulnerabilities.

How to validate .otp files in Python

Python
def is_otp(file_path: str) -> bool:
    """Check if file is a valid OTP by magic bytes."""
    signature = bytes([0x50, 0x4B])
    with open(file_path, "rb") as f:
        return f.read(2) == signature

How to validate .otp files in Node.js

Node.js
function isOTP(buffer: Buffer): boolean {
  const signature = Buffer.from([0x50, 0x4B]);
  return buffer.subarray(0, 2).equals(signature);
}

How to validate .otp files in Go

Go
func IsOTP(data []byte) bool {
    signature := []byte{0x50, 0x4B}
    if len(data) < 2 {
        return false
    }
    return bytes.Equal(data[:2], signature)
}
