Default Oil/Water leaking from CV Boots.

Hi all,
I noticed this light brown mess leaking from both inner CV joint boots, in all years working on cars i have not seen this before.

Any ideas??

And yes it's not a MGR but you guys have a answer for every problem.
Thanks.

Well, however the water's got in, I'd say the CVJ needs replacing.

Me neither , but it certainly looks like water has got in with the grease as T-Cut has said .
If it sets , can you make fudge with it ?
