I don't get, the host is crashing, right?
dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox-dkms?
apt-get install virtualbox-dkms?

Really? This issue with virtual box is ultimately a duplicate of a bug related to nvidia?

[Jeremy Bícha (jbicha)]

The bug is because of dkms which is used by both Nvidia and VirtualBox. You can see that if you read the comments on bug 1681566.

If you are still experiencing this bug, try running

sudo apt install --reinstall virtualbox-dkms
