Hey,

as far as I know there is no way to do that using Indico functionalities. If you manage your own instance of Indico I think you could extend the FileField class (https://github.com/indico/indico/blob/master/indico/modules/events/registration/fields/simple.py#L247) with the validators property. There you could probably check the mimetype of the file and fail in case it is not allowed.
