[Harry Potter][DCEU] Could Superman break through Dumbledores protective spells ?

No. Superman has no real power where Magic is concerned. The reason for this is that Superman's powers are grounded very firmly in the physics and laws of his reality. He absorbs and metabolizes yellow sunlight, which empowers him by altering the physiology of his body. It seems like magic to those who are not Kryptonian, but his powers are based on his biology and still very much bound by all the same laws of Energy and Physics as anything else in the universe.

Magic, on the other hand, specifically *breaks* and *bends* the laws of reality to get what the caster wants. If a magic user were to create a spark that ignited hydrogen and oxygen in the air to create a fireball, that fireball would not harm Superman because it is the product of a chemical reaction. The spark itself may have been magical, but the flames it ignited were wholly mundane. In contrast, a fireball conjured purely from magical energies would still hurt him, though to what degree depends entirely on how powerful the spell is.

Given this, Superman would be more or less completely stymied by magic on the scale a wizard like Dumbledore could produce. He could certainly still defeat Dumbledore, given his insane speed and strength, but he can't do dick against magic.
