but it isn't squashy, and none of the liquid remaining in the tin
escapes if I tip it over

what gives here?

I had a few individual tonic waters do that. Strange, I thought, not out
of date, just leaked.

I had one out of eight diet coke cans do that, couldn't find where the
leak came from on the aluminium can. As someone said, probably a bad
folded seam.

Aluminium cans dont have seams on the body of the can, only on the top.

Had a 500g pot of yogurt do that, 18 days within its time-to-go-bang date.

I kept an emergency tin of condensed 'nestles' milk in the back of
the cupboard. By the time it was ten years past its sell by date I
opened it out of interest but it had turned into a lump of
pale brown jelly. I would have thought the sugar content would
have made it keep, but I guess milk proteins don't keep.

I got three tins in Lidl before the panic buying started, then
it vanished but its now back on the shelves in Sainburys.
