This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.12.7-0ubuntu1

---------------
apport (2.12.7-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=low

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * New upstream release:
    - Properly fall back to lsb_release if /etc/os-release is invalid.
    - report.py, add_proc_info(): Add "CurrentDesktop" field with the value of
      $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP, if present. (LP: #1247904)
    - fileutils.py, get_all_system_reports(): Filter out "guest..." users,
      they might have a system UID. (LP: #1250679)
    - apt/dpkg: Don't call dpkg-divert with full path, it moved in Ubuntu
      14.04. (LP: #1252305)
  * launchpad.py: Ignore "MarkForUpload" field, it's just for internal
    communication with whoopsie.

  [ Andy Whitcroft ]
  * package-hooks/source_linux.py: pull forward fix to generify linux-meta
    to linux mapping.  (LP: #1229611)
  * package-hooks/source_linux.py: pull forward kernel tagging for
    linux-lts- family kernels.  (LP: #1229611)

Title:
  crash files from guest users considered system reports

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “apport” source package in Saucy:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  If a guest user experiences a crash on an Ubuntu system it is reported
  as a system crash by apport/fileutils.py (because the guest user id is
  less than 500).  Subsequently, a crash notification dialog appears on
  the guest user's session and on the primary user's session (if they
  are logged in).  However, when you go to actually file the report (as
  the primary user) nothing happens.

  Regardless, I wonder if get_all_system_reports() in
  apport/fileutils.py  couldn't check to see if the crash file is owned
  by a guest user.
