White doesn't sound like mold, more like a hard water stain.

i suggest you cut a portion of the drywall out where the spots are . look at the back of it and see. if your unsure then take it to the board of health office and ask them to tell you what this is. make sure to seal it in a plastic bag.
if you do have mold behind the walls then you should repair the leaks then remove the drywall and follow the instuctions for dealing with this mold some mold is deadly.

could be mold....doubt it
sounds like color bleeding and or leaching...........
to be sure... you can spray it with a spray bottle with diluted bleach
say at most half bleach ..the rest water..........then repaint with
an anti mold additive in the paint ...it's about an extra dollar or two per gallon... where a mask and avoid breathing any dust
