Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

I think that any Apport report that includes the process map is marked as private by default, because it might reveal sensitive information about the system. This therefore doesn't have anything to do with a security issue.

This issue still isn't resolved.
