Thanks @octoquad! 😊

Applied your debdiff patch and tested. Replaced these 3 files with the
patched one:

/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/ui/gtk3/utils.py
/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/ui/gtk3/view/catview.py
/usr/share/software-center/ui/gtk3/css/softwarecenter.adwaita-dark.css

But modified the `utils.py` file a bit, so that it loads themes other
than Adwaita in dark mode.😁 I've attached the modified `utils.py` file
here.

** Attachment added: "Modded utils.py for loading any theme under dark mode"

Title:
  Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg

Status in Ubuntu GNOME:
  Fix Released
Status in software-center package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in software-center source package in Trusty:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * A user is unable to view the text within the software center
  application which makes the application almost unusable.

   * Ubuntu GNOME users that are currently using a dark theme with an
  LTS release requested that the fix be backported to trusty from wily.

   * This fix applies a custom style sheet for the dark variant of
  Ubuntu GNOME Adwaita theme.

  [Test Case]

   * In Ubuntu GNOME open Gnome Tweak Tool
   * Enable the Global Dark Theme option under Appearances
   * Launch Software Center
   * You will find that text is translucent which is hard to read on the home page.
   * Click on any package. The package text is the same color as the background.
   * Apply the fix
   * Open software center and all text is now legible.

  [Regression Potential]

   * None. This fix was applied in Wily.
   * Fix for trusty was tested with both dark and light themes for both Ubuntu Gnome and Ubuntu Unity.
