This error is reproducible from gradle 7.4 onwards. In gradle 7.3.3 the expected behaviour is correctly.
Code in doFirst statement inside a task (type: War) that is part of finalizeBy statement doesn not working
I have the following gradle task structure (This gradle task structure is simplification of the real structure but is very usefull to reproduce the error)

task taskF (type: War){
    outputs.upToDateWhen { false }
    doFirst{
	    println "Runninf before taskF"
   }

   doLast{
        println "Runninf after taskF"
  }
}

task taskE(type: War) {
    outputs.upToDateWhen { false }
    doFirst{
	    println "Running before taskE"
   }

   doLast{
        println "println after taskE"
  }
}

task taskD(type: Jar) {
    outputs.upToDateWhen { false }
    doFirst{
        println "Running before taskD"
    }

    doLast{
        println "Running after taskD"
    }
}

task taskC {
  doFirst {
    println "Running taskC"
  }
  finalizedBy taskD, taskE, taskF
}

task taskB{
  doFirst {
    println "Running taskB"
  }
  finalizedBy taskC
}

task taskA {
	doLast{
		println "Running taskA"
	}

	finalizedBy taskB
}
taskE.mustRunAfter taskD

Expected Behavior

When I run ./gradlew taskA I can see the following output:

Task :taskA
Running taskA

Task :taskB
Running taskB

Task :taskC
Running taskC

Task :taskD
Running before taskD
Running after taskD

Task :taskE
Running before taskE
Running after taskE

Task :taskF
Running before taskF
Running after taskF

All the tasks execute correctly

Current Behavior

When I run ./gradlew taskA I can see the following output:

Task :taskA
Running taskA

Task :taskB
Running taskB

Task :taskC
Running taskC

Task :taskD
Running before taskD
Running after taskD

But tasks E and F, that also form part of finalizeBy statement in the task C, does not execute

Context

This error is not letting me generate the war to deploy in a client

Steps to Reproduce

You can use the example provided for me an execute ./gradlew taskA

Note: if you change the task E and F and remove (type: War), then the code inside doFirst{} statement execute correctly

Running ./gradlew taskA with your example as provided does execute all 6 tasks for me (taskA, taskB, taskC, taskD, taskE, and taskF) on Gradle 7.4.2, so there does appear to be some other variable required to reproduce that isn’t necessarily identified yet.
