app:lintVitalDebug seems to be a subtask of app:minifyDebugWithR8.
I recently upgraded to Android Studio Electric Eel, not sure if it is related. Only happens on release builds, so probably R8 is the culprit. I use Gradle dependency 7.3.1 and Gradle version 7.5 (inside gradle-wrapper.properties).
Edit:
I ran the task separately now: ./gradlew :app:lintVitalDebug --scan
Here is the output:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
