Mac crashes and reboots when I start a particular CentOS guest

[Chuck14]

Host: MacOS 10.14.5
VBox 6.0.8
Guest: CentOS 7.6

I can watch the guest begin to boot in the console window. Right about the time the login prompt appears, the whole system goes black and reboots. Seems to happen every time - I've only done it twice since I don't enjoy having to restart everything I had running, but it did exactly the same thing both times. The MacOS crash log is attached. Here's the kexstat output:

Nobody has any suggestions?

[socratis]

1. I see Avira installed. Can you uninstall it?
2. Do you have the VBox.log from the last crash? ZIP it and attach it.
3. Does it happen only with that guest?
4. What's installed on your Mac that's not native?

[Chuck14]

1. Are there known issues with Avira? I would rather not remove it...
2. Attached
3. This is the only guest I have created on this machine so far
4. Sorry, not sure what you mean by "not native". Non-Apple software?

[socratis]

1. You're the first that I remember of that has Avira on OSX. I don't really like the kext "com.avira.kext.FileAccessControl", something doesn't feel/sound right about it.
2. VBox.log: see below for the analysis.
3. If this is the only guest, I'm going to change the title of the thread from "Mac crashes and reboots when I start a particular CentOS guest", because it implies a completely different situation.
4. Non-Apple software, especially software that needs an administrator account to be installed, software that's system-wide modifying. Like your Avira for example. Please post the output of the commands:

   • ls -ald /Applications/*/*
     ls -al /Library/Extensions/

From your VBox.log:

00:00:01.383154 [/Devices/usb-ehci/] (level 2)

Not an earth shuttering change, but you could benefit if you're using USB3.

00:00:01.383188 VMSVGA3dEnabled    <integer> = 0x0000000000000000 (0)
00:00:01.383189 VMSVGAPciId        <integer> = 0x0000000000000001 (1)
00:00:01.383190 VRamSize           <integer> = 0x0000000001000000 (16 777 216, 16 MB)

Go to the VM Settings » Display » Screen. Change the Graphics controller from "VMSVGA" to "VBoxVGA". Enable 3D acceleration. Increase the VRAM to the max 128 MB. Again, I don't expect this to make a difference in your crash.

Finally, can you try another client? Just booting from a LiveDVD should suffice. My preferred "stable" client is Mint 19. Download the ISO, create a new VM, boot from that. See if that crashes your host or not.

Same error, anyone get the error? This is my log
