The official Gravity Forms post [0] indicates you were only compromised if you installed Gravity Forms via direct website download or Composer install.

From what I can see, Composer install methods use the same Gravity Forms API to fetch the install package as the auto-update feature within the plugin. Their WP-CLI plugin uses the same mechanism too.

It will be interesting to see if the Gravity Forms developers engage a third party security firm to investigate this incident. So far they have not mentioned it.
