We've had this discussion before.  It doesn't take a hyper-nerd to get 
info out of a dump file.  Just a good debugger and access to the source 
code.

As for confidential data being leaked, the core file typically will 
contain just the crashed program info, but if it's reproducible, you send 
them a core from a simplified setup.
