Your brake fluid might be low. You may need new pads.

Check your pads too. When they wear, fluid looks low even if the same amount is in the system. When you push the pistons back in and you have already filled it up, then the reservoir will overfill out of the top.

Or you could be leaking somewhere as well. Do a good checkup all the way around and at the master cylinder as well.
