Did you install virtualbox via packagamanager or manually from the deb you can get of the official website.
If the first then please reinstall the virtualbox dkms package.
If the later please make sure dkms and the linux-headers packages are installed.

Yea, rebuild the kernel module or remove that version and install the one available in the official repositories.
