If you don't know this by now, you should. Cordova manages the base code that is used for Phonegap and other simmilar systems include, but not limited to, Sencha Touch, Ionic, Monaca, Onsen Ui, etc. (more)
Other bugs for other Cordova/Phonegap open source products can be found by walking the tree from the root, for example:
-
https://github.com/phonegap/{productName} - get 'productName'
-
https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-{name} - gets cordova-plugin-'name' (official bugs on Jira, see pull requests here)
-
http://git.apache.org/ - has links to "distribution source", and "git" and "official" repository
-
Android "Official"
Security issues are in a different files
- (security-issues.md) - mostly Android
- (security-issues-ios.md) - iOS related
Yes there are more bugs, I just have not seen any yet.
- Javascript
- Android
- Windows
- Blackberry
- etc
- Google No Longer Provides Patches for WebView Jelly Bean and Prior
- https://web.archive.org/web/20150905130759/https://community.rapid7.com/community/metasploit/blog/2015/01/11/google-no-longer-provides-patches-for-webview-jelly-bean-and-prior
Over the past year, independent researcher Rafay Baloch (of "Rafay's Hacking Articles") and Rapid7's Joe Vennix have been knocking out Android WebView exploits somewhat routinely, based both on published research and original findings. Today, Metasploit ships with 11 such exploits, thanks to Rafay, Joe, and the rest of the open source security community. Generally speaking, these exploits affect "only" Android 4.3 and prior -- either native Android 4.3, or apps built with 4.3 WebView compatibility
Google responds:
If the affected version [of WebView] is before 4.4, we generally do not develop the patches ourselves, but welcome patches with the report for consideration. Other than notifying OEMs, we will not be able to take action on any report that is affecting versions before 4.4 that are not accompanied with a patch.

I can confirm that this issue was caused by one of the iOS splash screen png files missing for the 667h and 736h dimensions. Apparently in iOS 9 this is now a hard requirement, compared to iOS 8, or handled differently by Phonegap.
Strange impact for the same app on the same phone and screen when the issue is related to this splash screen only. Anyway, I suppose this should fix some other apps as well so please double check if all the (latest) 14 iOS splash screen files are included.
