I assume that the warning message

WARNING: Environment variable LOGNAME or USER does not correspond to effective user id.

throws the parser off.

Note that VirtualBox 6.1 has not received any patch version since January 2024 and therefore needs to be assumed "end of life" (see also https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/+bug/2073267/comments/14).

Full DEBUG log files attached.
(I am aware that the log contains sensitive cryptographic data such as RSA private keys. They are used in a private environment and all keys have been deleted/rotated such that their publication will be of no use for any attacker).
