777 is not the magic sledgehammer to fix all permission problems.
Your "iso" file is now writable and executable by everything on the system, you should set it 660 before someone comes along and overwrites it with something nasty.
I suspect it means what it says... that your iso file is not actually an iso. What does this print to terminal? file /usr/lib/virtualbox/additions/VBoxGuestAdditions.iso

XEN-RESIZE-GUEST(8) Perl Programmers Reference Guide XEN-RESIZE-GUEST(8)
NAME
xen-resize-guest - Resize a loopback or LVM based xen guest.
SYNOPSIS
xen-resize-guest [options]
Help Options:
--help Show help information.
--manual Read the manual for this script.
--version Show the version information and exit.
--verbose Show diagnostic output.
General Options:
--add Specify the amount of space to add, e.g. --add=1gb

DESCRIPTION
This tool will ease the resizing of Xen guests, whether they are based
upon loopback files or LVM partitions.
Whilst the process of resizing a guest is pretty simple it can be fiddly
to do the steps correctly in the right order:
1. Shutdown the guest. 2. Unmount the volume, if it is mounted. 3. Add to the space. 4. Check the filesystem. 5. Resize the
filesystem. 6. Restart the guest.
More than once I've heard of users making mistakes and breaking their
filesystems; hence this tool.
