https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/wiki/Spring-Boot-2.3-Release-Notes#validation-starter-no-longer-included-in-web-starters

Validation Starter no longer included in web starters As of #19550, Web and WebFlux starters do not depend on the validation starter by default anymore. If your application is using validation features, for example you find that javax.validation.* imports are not being resolved, you’ll need to add the starter yourself.

For Maven builds, you can do that with the following:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
  <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-validation</artifactId>
</dependency>

For Gradle, you will need to add something like this:

dependencies {
  ...
  implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-validation'
}
