I am running RHEL 6.8 with Virtual Box Version 5.1.18 r114002 (Qt5.6.1). Every time I try to install Extension Pack version 5.1.18-114002, I get this error:
Failed to install the Extension Pack /home/md2mmub/Desktop/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-5.1.18-114002.vbox-extpack.
The installer failed with exit code 1: **

How did you try to install the ExtPack? Have you tried to install it from within VirtualBox's preferences » Extensions? It seems that the installed "pkexec" in your system is failing for some reason. I'd start digging there...

I never did get this working. I ended up using KVM instead of Virtualbox. That being said, I have recently build a RHEL 7.4 system, and I was able to install Virtualbox and extensions without any issues.
