Flex Validators work a bit differently than this but check out the Validator Samples in Tour de Flex.

Yes, I know that they work differently than ASP's ones but my question is more if a component exists for my particular need.

Flex is very flexible when it comes to validators - you can call validators however you want, handle the results however you want, and even create your own custom validation.

I'm only trying to not to make a component for something that the framework already has. It seemed that my question wasn't clear enough.

A:
There is no component in Flex specifically designed to show a collection of all the validation errors in a form. Some built-in components have support for validation error indicators. TextInput, for instance, can display a red border with an error tooltip that appears on mouse roll over.

I'll guess that i'll just have to write some kind of component for my own needs

Well, I achieved the results I was expecting with a bit of work.
Sharing in the event that somebody has the same needs that I had ;-):
- Made a component that overrides validationResultHandler and manages validation errors
- Made sure that all the validators that had to be shown in the component had their listener property set to the component's instance
And thats pretty much it.
<my:ValidationView id="vv" />
<mx:StringValidator listener="{vv}" ... />
<mx:Validator listener="{vv}" ... />
