How to transfer files from a virtual machine to the host without risking getting infected?
I have to transfer some files such as movies, TV series and other large stuff (so I can not to use a cloud) from a virtual machine to the host. I read that an infected virtual machine can spread malware to the host using the shared folder, so I didn't create any shared folder between host and guest because I'm using the VM for "unclean stuff" and I don't want to risk to infect the host.
But how can I transfer those files without the shared folder and without running the risk of infecting the host?
The program I'm using is Virtual Box, the host is Ubuntu 22.04 and the virtual machine is running Debian 12 (I know both Ubuntu and Debian are pretty safe, but I'm trying to take as many precautions as possible).
