[ModEdit; related ticket: #17351: Virtual box GUI bad access crash on NAT network settings edit]
I have visual defects in the main VB GUI, and I am able to get the GUI to crash on a consistent basis, based on the presence of those visual defects.
A sample And The pattern seems to be (there may be others) related to the new "Global Tools" option from the main GUI. Once either or both of the "Virtual Media Manager" or the "Host Network Manager" have been enabled from either the selection or the drop down. Go to Preferences > Network > Add or selection a Nat Network > Edit > crashes.
If there are no "Global Tools" open in the main GUI (provided it was started like that), then it does not crash. Opening those tools from the File menu also does not appear to cause the crash.
Host macOS 10.13.1
Guest does not seem to be relevant, crashes with or without a guest
VB 5.2.2
Things I've attempted to resolve the issue, but have not worked;
1. Uninstall (using the uninstall tool) > Restart OS > Install
2. Delete the "Virtualbox.xml"
3. Remove all the VMs
