I've checked these CVEs against
<http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/cpujul2014-1972956.html> and I don't think they apply to virtualbox in Debian:

Applies only when VirtualBox is running on a Windows host operating system

> CVE-2014-4261
Applies only when VirtualBox is running on a Windows host operating system

> CVE-2014-2489
Applies to virtualbox << 4.3.12
