VirtualBox 6.1.4 GUI SEGV/crash when deleting a VM — at Version 5

Reported by: crunchyjohn Owned by:
Component: other Version: VirtualBox 6.1.4
Keywords: crash segmentation fault unregister vboxmanage unregistervm Cc:
Guest type: Linux Host type: all

Description (last modified by paulson)

This issue is not present in Virtual Box 6.1.2. I do not know about 6.1.3.

I use a mac for virtual box (Mojave, v10.14.6)

Procedure to reproduce:

  1. Install Virtual Box 6.1.4
  2. Install Vagrant 2.2.7 (latest)
  3. mkdir test
  4. cd test
  5. vagrant init centos/7
  6. Vagrant up
  7. Vagrant ssh
  8. ls -l (just proof that you did something in the VM)
  9. exit
  10. VBoxManage list runningvms
  11. Get the ID from the left column, e.g. test_default_1584037646504_61912
  12. VBoxManage controlvm test_default_1584037646504_61912 poweroff
  13. VBoxManage unregistervm test_default_1584037646504_61912 --delete
  14. VirtualBox crashes.

I have a log that it tries to send to Apple, which I'll attach if I can.

Any update?

A crash seems like a pretty severe problem, so I'm hoping others are able to easily reproduce it.

Is there anything else I can do to help?

Sounds similar to problem where VirtualBox crashes when last VM deleted through UI.

Summary: Virtual Box 6.1.4 segementation fault / crash on "VBoxManage unregistervm"VirtualBox 6.1.4 GUI SEGV/crash when deleting a VM

Thanks for the report. This is a regression introduced in 6.1.4 which affects all hosts. As @nycnewman reported in #19490 this is a problem in the VirtualBox GUI and as reported here is also reproducible if running 'VBoxManage unregistervm VMname --delete' of a VM while the GUI is running.

The easiest way to reproduce this on the command line is the following which works for me when there are no other VMs created:

$ VirtualBox &
$ VBoxManage createvm --name fubar --register
$ VBoxManage unregistervm fubar --delete
[1] + Memory fault(coredump) VirtualBox
