VirtualBox 7.2.18 Released: Stability Fixes and Kernel Support

Oracle released VirtualBox 7.2.18 today as a bug-fix and stability maintenance update rather than a feature drop. The release resolves notable crashes, including blue-screen failures on Windows 11 on ARM after saved-state restores and VM-process crashes on Linux hosts with 3D acceleration. It also adds kernel support for Linux 7.3 and RHEL 10.3, fixes VDI differencing image corruption, and patches a Shared Clipboard filename bug. As a practical maintenance update, it is available now from Oracle's download site, though affected users benefit most over those without existing issues.
