Tetsuo Handa adb76f3f77 vt: defer kfree() of vc_screenbuf in vc_do_resize()
commit f8d1653daec02315e06d30246cff4af72e76e54e upstream.

syzbot is reporting UAF bug in set_origin() from vc_do_resize() [1], for
vc_do_resize() calls kfree(vc->vc_screenbuf) before calling set_origin().

Unfortunately, in set_origin(), vc->vc_sw->con_set_origin() might access
vc->vc_pos when scroll is involved in order to manipulate cursor, but
vc->vc_pos refers already released vc->vc_screenbuf until vc->vc_pos gets
updated based on the result of vc->vc_sw->con_set_origin().

Preserving old buffer and tolerating outdated vc members until set_origin()
completes would be easier than preventing vc->vc_sw->con_set_origin() from
accessing outdated vc members.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
