You will need to provide more info...

Were these burned CDs?

Since you have not wished to add more information, I can only guess you left the disks so sunlight could destroy the undersides. The dye is light sensitive. Burned DVDs are very sensitive to sunlight while CDs are less so. Burned disks should remain in boxes or jackets when not used. If you must leave them out, leave them with the burned surface down. Scratches will hurt the disks far less than light. The tops are coated with a reflective coating to protect the dye.
