Debian does not support virtualbox in Debian stable because of a difference
of opinion with the upstream provider about the practicability of security
updates, as I understand it.

The version in sid is there to prove the practicability of packaging, I 
think. In any event, sid is not intended as a Debian release.

Can I suggest that you ask Oracle for help on this?

The alternative is to switch from Virtualbox (and now also Broadcom VMWare)
and use kvm/aqemu. For myself, I prefer to use virt-manager as a front end
to virtualisation.

With every good wish, as ever,
