I can't download the extension pack.
The error is:
Websites prove their identity via certificates. Firefox does not trust this site because it uses a certificate that is not valid for download.virtualbox.org. The certificate is only valid for the following names: download.oracle.com, epd-akam-us.oracle.com, epd-akam-ca.oracle.com, epd-akam-intl.oracle.com, aru-akam.oracle.com
"Your connection is not private
Attackers might be trying to steal your information from download.virtualbox.org (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). Learn more
NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID"
The certificate is assigned to "download.oracle.com" instead of "download.virtualbox.org "
But, if I access the server with http (not https = http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian) then it works.
So, as a temporary workaround, you may, at your own risk, use the unsecure http URL...

FWIW, it also doesn't work for download.oracle.com in Firefox or any other browsers. .This just happened yesterday. Apparently they need a new certificate.
OSX, Linux and Windows Hosts & Guests
There are three groups of people. Those that can count and those that can't.
Einfach dort trotzdem herunterladen.
Wenn Du dir das "unsichere" Zertifikat der Download-Webseite anschaust, wirst Du sehen, daß Oracle zur Zeit nur ein Konfigurationsproblem hat und das derzeitige Zertifikat nur für "download.oracle.com" gilt, aber nicht für die "download.virtualbox.org" Seite.
apt-get update produces this error today on Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS
Err:10 https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian bionic Release
Certificate verification failed: The certificate is NOT trusted. The name in the certificate does not match the expected. Could not handshake: Error in the certificate verification. [IP: 2.20.129.111 443]
+1 reporting this also. I appears it is using the cert from _download.oracle.com_ instead of _download.virtualbox.org_. It looks like somebody used the wrong cert.
This needs fixed on the Oracle/Virtualbox side of things.

I posted this issue in the Forum Volunteers section but I thought it may be more appropriate here. Getting a bad certificate warning trying to download 6.0.6 for OSX in all browsers since yesterday. See the attached file.
No matter how I try I can't download the installer (https://download.virtualbox.org/virtual ... _amd64.deb) Browser just sits there trying forever. Tried on different computers Windows 10 and Linux Mint 19.1, and at two different locations.
