The Oracle VirtualBox team in Germany released the v4.3.20 update today.

VirtualBox 4.3 was released in October of 2013 and since then VirtualBox from an external look appears to be largely in maintenance mode. The 20th point release was put out today with just stability and regression fixes. There's not yet any public development releases of VirtualBox 4.4 or any other next-generation series to this virtualization software born during the Sun Microsystems days. Thankfully, during this time, KVM and Xen along with components like Virt-Manager and QEMU continue advancing in a steadfast manner for those interested in open-source virtualization.

The VirtualBox 4.3.20 release announcement can be found on VirtualBox.org.

Let us know in the forums what you're using these days for Linux virtualization software.
