These spots are a natural sign of the ripe banana process.

This "breathing" process of vegetables occurs faster when it is ripe. For most fruits, breathing is slower during growth. The growth and ripening of bananas are different.

Initially the banana's breath is quite slow, when ready to ripen, it will secrete a chemical that increases respiratory rate. At this point, the starch in the banana will be converted into sugar and create great flavor for this fruit.
