After magento update from v. 2.4.3 to 2.4.7 checkout is not working properly. “Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘form’)” error message

After magento update from v. 2.4.3 to 2.4.7 checkout is not working properly. When I want to place the order every time I get this error message in the console from jquery.validate.js. :
“Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘form’)” and this is the program code:

valid: function() {
var valid, validator, errorList;
if ( $( this[ 0 ] ).is( “form” ) ) {
valid = this.validate().form();
} else {
errorList = [];
valid = true;
validator = $( this[ 0 ].form() ).validate();
this.each( function() {
valid = validator.element( this ) && valid;
if ( !valid ) {
errorList = errorList.concat( validator.errorList );
}
} );
validator.errorList = errorList;
}
return valid;
}
Can somebody help me with this problem?
