This happened to me with a kernel crash:

   File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/ui.py", line 166, in 
thread_collect_info
     os.chmod(reportfile, 0o640)
 PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: 
'/var/crash/linux-image-3.11.0-031100rc4-generic.238045.crash'

We can see the crash is owned by kernoops and is not writable by anyone
else:

 $ ls -lh /var/crash 
total 628K
-rw-r--r-- 1 kernoops whoopsie 3.4K Aug 28 14:26 
linux-image-3.11.0-031100rc4-generic.238045.crash
