Thank you! Mark J
Something might have accidentally gotten in but that is not the case here it is oil like substance because Component side PCB does not have any sign of infiltration of fluid.

sorry!! Henrique Jorge G. Ulbrich,
i also do not have Idea may be plasticizer material oozing out.
(A plasticizer is a substance that is added to a material to make it softer and more flexible like rubber/silicon membrane, to increase its plasticity, to decrease its viscosity, and/or to decrease friction during its handling in manufacturing process which may ooze out because of some environmental effect)

That is a common problem. People get food or drinks inside of the remote and gets on the PCB and rubber pad buttons.
