You are asking a legal question where the answer depends on where you live and also what contracts you have signed. Nobody (not even a lawyer) could answer your question based on the information you have provided.
In practice unless what you contributed has any serious value (unlikely) then nobody will care. There is a 99.9% chance that nothing will happen if you just go ahead and submit a PR without worrying about the legailities [0].
0. This is not legal advice and I am not a lawyer.
- trw10011 9y agoI found a major bug in a big project (which is a big edge case, but still if it happens...). So one could assume it has serious value to some people. Sad that there is no discussion here, since I assume that my position is that of lots of people here, so I guess everyone is buring their head in the sand (if this was a non-issue than projects wouldnt ask for CLA/DCO).
