The Hugging Face incident involved chaining together multiple 0 days in Artifactory. It was not a simple case of misconfiguring a firewall. Also note that OpenAI was not using Irregular.
People are mindlessly transitioning from "aligned by default" to "well your sandbox was able to be bypassed. What did you expect?" It hacked into another company and attempted to delete the logs of its activities. That's bad.

  Not only that, it later hacked OpenAI itself, which everyone seems to forget about.
  After discovering it they "reimaged known compromised worker nodes" and "started a full rebuild of the compromised cluster, the managed Kubernetes environment, the relational database, and the storage infrastructure."
  at OpenAI, not Hugging Face.
  It's all in the report.
