It is also possible and legal to run OS X as a guest in VMware ESXi but again only if you are using a real Mac. In this scenario if you used VMware Fusion or Parallels or VirtualBox they would all allow running an OS X guest in a virtual machine on a Mac running OS X as the host. It is hypothetically possible to get round this problem but does require more expertise and additional tools. VirtualBox has no built-in support for OS X guests even on a real Mac host and as a result even if you did make an iso image of OS X which is possible, by itself it will not work. However it is also the case that VMware Fusion and Parallels have built-in support for OS X guests to make it much easier to install and setup an OS X guest it is therefore not necessary to make a special OS X iso image. While VMware Fusion and Parallels implement checks and will only allow an OS X guest if the host is a real Mac I don't believe VirtualBox does this.
The same would apply to VMware Fusion and Parallels. Therefore yes it would be legal to run OS X in VirtualBox if VirtualBox is running on a Mac. VirtualBox is a community effort backed by a dedicated company: everyone is encouraged to contribute while Oracle ensures the product always meets professional quality criteria.It is only legal to run OS X in a virtual machine if the host computer is a Mac. VirtualBox is being actively developed with frequent releases and has an ever growing list of features, supported guest operating systems and platforms it runs on. Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6, 3.x and 4.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, and OpenBSD.
