most often, it means that the brake pads need to be replaced.

Sometimes something, sometimes nothing. A close inspection is in order to diagnose; if the rotors are grooved or pads are worn below spec, you'll get squeal. You'll also get squeal with noise pads/clips going out of place.

Usually the brake pad is already thin so it needs replacement or you got too much brake fluid.
