If you've found a bug and there's no open issue about it, open one yourself. It helps if you also write a failing unit test for it.
If you'd like to just help fix existing bugs instead, help investiage open issues or create a pull request with your fix.
Pull requests should be limited to fixes, and should conform to the project's code style.
