Both Differentials Leaking now.

Last week I noticed gear oil coming out of the front differential breather hose. I just did a 300 mile trip and when I got home I noticed that my rear differential is leaking a lot from the front seal. The dealer has done all repairs and services to the truck. I wonder if they overfilled the differentials, and if so, is there any permanent damaged?
