You can use the ImageIO framework to do this:

CGImageSourceRef isrc = CGImageSourceCreateWithData((CFDataRef)data, NULL);
if (isrc) {
    CFStringRef imageType = CGImageSourceGetType(isrc);
    // see if imageType is among known types such as kUTTypeJPEG,
kUTTypeTIFF, kUTTypePNG
    CGImageSourceRelease(isrc);
}
