Default Leaking rear shock? 2016 IS200t

Was doing an oil change + rotation last night and noticed fluid near the top of one of my rear shocks. Does this indicate a leak or can it be something else?

Thanks!

Looks like a leak to me. Early leak, but will get worse.
Replacing the rear shocks is pretty straightforward.
Replaced mine about 3.5 years ago on my 2014 @62k miles.

It's starting to get to that point.
