We also experience something similar when a mailto:[email protected] link is used in the Image. The mailto works on publisher. It seems like the Teaser is also affected https://github.com/adobe/aem-core-wcm-components/issues/2636

The same issue occurs with core/wcm/components/button/v2/button. The link set as tel:0800600600 works, but the error logs get flooded with this error. This makes it hard to navigate through Cloud instances error logs. The issue is in LinkUtil, any component using it have the issue.

Any update about this issue ?

[fahol-coop]

This should be fixed globaly in LinkUtil, as mailto: or tel: are valid inputs for href attribute. It doesn't matter if it's a teaser, button or anything else.

What is the reason to block it?

After our latest update of the core components to version 2.29.0, the issue is no longer there. We finally unmuted the logging of LinkUtil class. I guess the issue can be closed @fbonheurCap
