    There are a few hex/disk editors that support "templates" (but you need most times to create those yourself).

    Here is a sort of "curated list" of related tools:

    The most complete/populated I know of is Kaitai:

    http://kaitai.io/

    http://formats.kaitai.io/

    that you can use with Hiew with Kiewtai

    If the question is slightly different, i.e. which bytes are used to identify a given file format, there is Trid:

    Which has also a database of known headers/patterns.
