I've been contributing to the OSS ecosystem for about a decade now. My contributions primarily fall into two categories:
Bug Reports - When I encounter bugs with a dependency, I tend to search through the project's issues for solutions. If I find an open ticket, I'll add a comment to the thread to make it known that the issue affects multiple more than one person.
Bug Fixes - I'm not a fan of building fixes into your own application code for dependency issues, so often times I'll fork the dependency & create the fix for my own project, and afterwards submit the fix to as a pull request for the dependency to adopt. This has led to me signing CLAs for both Apache and Oracle.
