ODOM messages contain 2 different sets of data.

The first is the robot POSE in the ODOM frame. This can contain non-zero Y as part of the pose(location of the robot).

The second part is the TWIST message that shows movement. It should not have a non-zero Y for differential drive. For a holonomic robot having non-zero Y would be expected.
