I believe this is because that broadcom-sta-dkms is run as root (thus
created a crash file at /var/crash owned as root) but you tried to read
it as a normal user?  If it is the case then it's not crash but an error
that you should run apport-kde as root in order to process that crash
file.

** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid
