Public bug reported: After a recent upgrade of virtualbox-guest-utils from version 6.1.16-dfsg-6~ubuntu1.20.04.2 to 6.1.22-dfsg-2~ubuntu1.20.04.1 (on an Ubuntu 20.04 guest system running in a VirtualBox VM), mounting shared folders doesn't work any more.
When trying to mount a shared folder, the following error messages appear in /var/log/kern.log: vboxsf: Invalid info signature: 0x75 0x69 0x64 0x3d! vbsf_read_super_aux err=-22 After downgrading the package virtualbox-guest-utils (on the guest system) from 6.1.22-dfsg-2~ubuntu1.20.04.1 to 6.1.16-dfsg-6~ubuntu1.20.04.2, shared folders can be mounted again.
