I haven't tried Virtualbox 4.3 but Virtualbox 4.2 sort of works on Mavericks. The kernel extensions don't load on boot, but can be loaded manually. I blogged about that here http://asquera.de/development/2013/06/20/vagrant-on-maverick...

It also depends on how your Gatekeeper settings are set; mine are set to "Mac App store and indentified developers". The OS alerted me that the kexts were unsigned, it said it would load them anyway.
