Sorry for my late reply. I have updated to Org 9.7.2 in the meanwhile.

M-x yank-media-types RET yields:

Yank type:
clipboard:image/tiff
clipboard:STRING
clipboard:text/plain

M-x yank-media RET still inserts an attachment with a tiff file that I
cannot open in Preview.

BTW, Org identifies with a rather longish string that used to be shorter
in Org 9.6:

Org mode version 9.7.2 (release_N/A-N/A-88dd2c @
/Users/juergenfenn/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7.2/)
