Am I affected?

Description

A directory traversal issue was discovered in Gradle gradle-enterprise-test-distribution-agent before 1.3.2, test-distribution-gradle-plugin before 1.3.2, and gradle-enterprise-maven-extension before 1.8.2. A malicious actor (with certain credentials) can perform a registration step such that crafted TAR archives lead to extraction of files into arbitrary filesystem locations.
