Leaked, oozed (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

seeped

This clue is a double definition.

'leaked' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'oozed' is the second definition.
('seep' can be a synonym of 'ooze')

(Other definitions for seeped that I've seen before include "Sweated" , "Oozed slowly out" , "Leaked through small openings" , "Oozed or percolated" , "Exuded" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
