Default Dead power supply making "whining" sound

Hello,

I have a dead 5V power supply from a Linksys router. It is making a
very high pitch "whining" sound. I opened up the unit and noticed one
of the caps is deformed (the top of the cap is more rounded). What
could cause this high pitch sound? Is it the cap or other component?
