Not an expert but to run those they need a user context to do so! Receive permissions and the like based on the currently logged in user! Running them in that way would effectively remove restrictions that should be in place for every process started by the kernel!

To me it seems that you just want to execute two commands after startup but before you login. I am not sure if this will work with Virtual Box but usually you just add a line to /etc/rc.local
. But make sure you add your line before exit 0 :)

It is not recommended to run a virtual machine as root and Virtual Box is not designed to do so. This is why a virtual machine always needs to be started from a user session.
If you need to run this session after boot you may enable auto-login for a user running your virtual machines as startup application.
