In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cifs: Fix missing credit release on failure in cifs_issue_read() Fix missing release of credits in the failure path in cifs_issue_read() lest retrying the subreq just overwrites the credits value.

A flaw was found in the CIFS (Common Internet File System) component of the Linux kernel. A missing credit release on failure in the `cifs_issue_read()` function can lead to a situation where retrying a sub-request overwrites existing credit values. This resource management issue could potentially lead to system instability or a denial of service.
