In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: Don't log plaintext credentials in cifs_set_cifscreds
When debug logging is enabled, cifs_set_cifscreds() logs the key
payload and exposes the plaintext username and password. Remove the
debug log to avoid exposing credentials.
