Updated virtualbox packages fixes security vulnerability

This update provides the 4.3.28 maintenance release fixing the following security issue:

The Floppy Disk Controller (FDC) in QEMU, XEN, KVM and virtualbox allows local guest users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write and guest crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via the FDCMDREADID, FDCMDDRIVESPECIFICATION_COMMAND, or other unspecified commands, aka VENOM (CVE-2015-3456).

For other fixes in the maintenance release, read the referenced changelog.
