DEBIAN-CVE-2023-53747

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vcscreen: reload load of struct vcdata pointer in vcswrite() to avoid UAF After a call to consoleunlock() in vcswrite() the vcdata struct can be freed by vcportdestruct(). Because of that, the struct vcdata pointer must be reloaded in the while loop in vcswrite() after consolelock() to avoid a UAF when vcssize() is called. Syzkaller reported a UAF in vcssize().
