It means a program crashed and a map of memory has been saved 
in order to detect the problem: the core file.
Unless you are a guru or the program was been compiled using
debug option, it's quite impossible to decrypt a core file.

I changed my /etc/profile file to avoid generation of core files.
It's enough to modify the line:

ulimit -c 10000

to

ulimit -c 0
