Weak syncro probably
Depends if it can be replaced on its own though an access panel, not sure on subaru boxes, otherwise its a gearbox out job
Check the gearbox oil level first though, its that funny dipstick besides the intercooler

Yes low oil can lead to it jumping out of gear, if not topped up it can result in permenant damage
