The problem has been solved. Here is the documentation for anyone running Linux in Virtualbox on Mac:

For installing the latest version of ADB and Fastboot in Ubuntu check this video tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZDinK5zEtM
In the video you can see Kali Linux but the commands are the same as for Ubuntu.

For connecting your device to Virtualbox the right way follow these steps:

  1. Go to the settings of your Linux virtual machine (in Virtualbox)
  2. Click on ports
  3. Add your phone as USB device by clicking the usb + icon.
  4. Restart your phone in fastboot mode (hold volume up + power).
  5. Add your USB device again. You will see it has a different name. Add it without deleting the other one.
  6. Download the latest version of the VirtualBox Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack on your mac and install it.
  7. Go to the settings of your Linux VM once again and click the ports menu.
  8. A toggle appears. Switch from USB 1.1 to USB 3.0

Install Easy Installer using the instructions here on the website and you are ready to go!
