The Avatar URL I am using is hosted on a local IP and the URL is mapped in my Windows host file. So the URL is not accessible outside the network.

You can use any online image URL like this one: https://www.winhelponline.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/user.png

It will show same avatar for all the users but you can test the broken avatar with this at least.

I am sorry. It turned out that my SSL had expired and that was causing this issue. But I am not sure that how it was working fine with older versions even with the expired SSL certificate.
