- Version bump to 5.0.10 (released 2015-11-10 by Oracle)
This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:
VMM: improved support for certain Intel Atom CPUs (bug #14773)
VMM: system register emulation fix (5.0 regression; bug #14515)
GUI: fixed immediate screenshot issue (bug #14108)
GUI: fixed another 3D overlay window reparenting issue when the VM is switched to fullscreen mode on X11 hosts
GUI: fixed help index (bug #14722)
GUI: fixed state synchronization issue in the VM manager window when VM was paused from its runtime window
Audio: fixed suspending/resuming audio streams on VM pause/unpause (bug #14784)
Audio: properly reset AC97 audio streams, otherwise there is silence until a non-48 kHz stream is played
Audio: fixed a small emulation quirk of the AD1980 codec of the HDA device to make recent linux guests work (bug #14653)
USB: serveral fixes for the xHCI controller
USB: fixed a crash under certain conditions on hosts with Linux kernels older than version 3.3
USB: better identification of certain USB devices
NAT: support TCP in DNS proxy (bug #14736)
NAT Network: fixed sporadic crashes on Windows hosts (bug #13899)
API: when creating differencing images (e.g. as part of a snapshot or cloning a VM) use the same disk image variant as the parent image if possible, which means that e.g. a diff image for a VMDK image split into 2 GB files will also be split (bug #14764)
API: event queue handling fixes preventing loss of certain events at runtime (e.g. new webcam attached), particularly important on Mac OS X hosts
Webcam: passthrough fix for certain devices (Windows hosts only)
VBoxManage: don't crash on snapshot restorecurrent / edit if the VM has no snapshots
VBoxManage: don't crash on controlvm addencpassword (bug #14729)
Mac OS X hosts: use the correct kernel on certain hosts
Windows hosts: fixed VRDP external authentication
Windows hosts: allow to use a shared folder path with extended-length path prefix (5.0 regression; bug #14651)
Windows hosts: fix a crash in the netfilter host driver under certain conditions (bug #14799)
Windows host installer: documented and fixed public properties which can be used to control the installation to some extent
Windows host installer: fixed not starting the actual installation when showing the version information or help dialogs
X11 Additions: added basic support for X.Org Server 1.18 (3D requires additional fixes)

- Update to version 4.3.6:
+ VMM: fixed a Guru Meditation VINF_EM_TRIPLE_FAULT caused by VMCB caching with nested paging on certain AMD CPUs (bug #12451)
+ VMM: fixed a Guru Meditation VERR_VMX_UNEXPECTED_INTERRUPTION_EXIT_TYPE while intercepting debug exceptions (VT-x only; bug #12410)
+ VMM: fixed a Guru Meditation VERR_SVM_UNEXPECTED_EXIT while intercepting debug register accesses (AMD-V only; bug #12481)
+ VMM: fixed a VERR_SSM_STRUCTURE_MAGIC error when trying to load a saved state made with VBox 4.3.4 when VT-x/AMD-V is disabled. Unfortunately, VBox 4.3.4 produced broken saved states for this configuration so you have to discard these states (bug #12414)
+ VMM: added a few more MSRs to the whitelist required by certain guests (bug #12245)
+ GUI: fixed deleting of inaccessible VMs (4.3 regression, bug #12205)
+ GUI: fixed warnings in VM settings / number of guest processors (bug #12480)
+ Main: don't automatically enable 64-bit guests on 64-bit hosts if VT-x/AMD-V is not available (bug #12424)
+ Main: always expose the DMI memory information to Windows 2012 guests (bug #12017)
+ Main: fixed occasional crashes on guest display resolution change (bug #7063)
+ Main: fixed reporting back temporary name when calling IGuestSession::DirectoryCreateTemp() (bug #12498)
+ API: fix for a hang when launching a GUI VM through the API, which crashes due to GUI unavailability
+ Storage: fix for BLKCACHE_IOERR runtime errors under rare circumstances (bug #11030)
+ Network: allow to start more than 5 PCNet instances (bug #12426)
+ E1000: if the cable was disconnected before the guest initialized the device, the link status was not properly set to 'down' after the initialization completed despite the fact that there was no connection
+ 3D support: fixed offset of guest 3D image elements (Mac OS X Retina hosts only; bug #11021)
+ Solaris hosts: fixed accessing the host driver from non-global zones (4.3 regression, bug #12271)
