Check the drains. It may have been clogged by particles from the food accumulated over time. It may also be from the ice that may have accumulated inside, at the panel at the back.

The solenoid valve that controls the water dispenser is leaking internally. It will be a double valve (one for ice, the other for chilled water) located at the bottom of the frame in the back of the unit. To find it, just trace where the plastic tubes originate from.
Easy to replace.
These leaks are sometimes caused by particles getting trapped on the valve seat. This can be prevented by use of an inline water filter on the copper supply line.
Most likely a water line underneath unit or the water valve. If it’s coming from inside unit and running out door, then it’s a stopped up defrost drain
Usually if a refrigerator is holding water this means that the condensate from the freezer is not going down into the pan in the bottom, the water has to go somewhere so it ends up in your refrigerator. Find the drain line in the bottom and try some how to blow it out, if you can do this and clean the pan you should be ok.
SMALL PLASTIC water pipe under front of door has joiner which changes from 8mm ? TO 10MM ? this leaked on mine and had to be replaced .any good plumbing supply shop could supply. May need to be tightned.
Check your ice maker lines that run in front at the bottom of your frig. You just might have a small leak in the line.It's located behind the grill in front of the frig.
Hi there, I believe you may have a defrost drain problem. See the water has to drain somewhere else when the drain is stopped up. So instead of into the catch basin on the bottom of the frig it cascades down the backside of the frig and ends up under the crispers. To fix the problem you must clear the defrost drain. It is located beneith the evaporator coils. When the frost on those coils melt it turns to water. Remove the freezer access panel, and clean out the drain. Use some hot water or a shop vac.
the water is coming from the freezer when is defrosts. the drain line is in the back wall of the freezer and may be clogged up with ice. clean out the freezer and pour some hot water in the very back of the freezer, this will hopefully unclog the drain. if not, then you have to take the back wall out of the freezer to get directly to the drain line. there should just be a couple screws holding it; it is just an aluminum or plastic panel.
