How long can I keep a steak cooked sous vide?

I'm planning to sous vide steaks for a quick campout; I would cook them sous vide, and pack them up in the morning of the campout. If I sear, then eat them in 12 hours, and keep them in the vacuum bag, do I have to freeze them, or can I just let them get to room temperature?

If the cooking is long enough to pasturize and they never leave the vacuum bag they cooked in, they would be fine if kept cold and then seared before eating. A dip in boiling water pre-SV would be a good idea too.
