Hi, in our ensuite bathroom we have these spots in the wall (exterior - cavity wall). Any idea what could cause these spots?

Looks like spots of mould caused by condensation, where hot steamy air hits the cold wall. Does extractor fan work? Is wall insulated?
 
Would need to double check extractor. The walls are filled with the blown fibre stuff.

I noticed the waste pipes on the exterior are not sealed around the pipes, is it possible that the cavity would get wet from this?

It’s not coming through the wall, more that the surface of the wall is cold which combined with bad extraction would cause what you’re seeing
