Comment 3 Philipp Hahn univentionstaff 2023-06-21 10:07:59 CEST
[VirtualBox](https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/virtualbox) has been remove from Debian for [serious security reasons](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=794466) since 8 years.

[VBox manual](https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch04.html) recommends _Guest Additions_ to match the VBox version:
> Each version of Oracle VM VirtualBox, even minor releases, ship with their own version of the Guest Additions. While the interfaces through which the Oracle VM VirtualBox core communicates with the Guest Additions are kept stable so that Guest Additions already installed in a VM should continue to work when Oracle VM VirtualBox is upgraded on the host, for best results, it is recommended to keep the Guest Additions at the same version.

As we do not know on which VBox version our image will be deployed, it's hard to pick a good default.

For now _VBox Guest Additions_ are no longer installed.
