I just found a fix, I hope it helps you.

The fix did not help me. I seems a somewhat of a workaround too. I opened the jar in two different zip toos and jar -tvf. In jar and winrar the pom.xml and pom.proerties are listed twice!!. In winexpress only once. The gradle exception says java.util.zip.ZipException so something is wrong here. In jar tvf the files are listed once during the listing of folders an once again at the end of the listing - as files. I guess gradle must handle java listings from java.util.zip / jar and not throw exception. I will try to file a more official bug report with the android community.
