Virtualbox on Ubunty 22 fails to start VMs with error 0X80004005
Hi everyone,
starting today, after about one week from its installation, my VirtualBox 7.0 started misbehaving. More precisely, when starting any VM (previously perfectly working) it throws an error:
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0X80004005)
I'm currently using BEST version 7.2.0.200144, on Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS.
The problem seemed to start today aroun 11AM GMT, when the VM I was working on suddenly crashed.
I already tried changing the policy shutting down the various components in Antimalware, but nothign appeared to work.
The only way I have to let the VM start is disabling the bdsec
systemctl stop bdsec
The VMs starts perfectly as it used to.
I tried adding exclusions of all kinds to the VirtualBoxVM binary, but with no success at any stage (forgetting that CommandLine is available on Windows only).
Did anyone else find the same problem? Any suggestion?
TIA
SZ

I will be opening a ticket at BD Enterprise support in the next days, whereas it doesn't seem to be a signature related problem.

The issues that you have encountered with the Virtual Box VMs crashing have been identified by our Development team and a fix will be released today on Fast Ring.
It is totally your choice to decide if you want the fix now via the fast ring release or wait for the slow ring general availability. Although is unlikely, fast ring releases could introduce other issues than the one you reported. If this occurs, they will be treated with high priority.
Choosing between the slow and fast update rings allows you to better control how updates are sent to your network. For more information, refer to the Administrator’s Guide
