How do you then use GET requests to create a malicious dataset package and publish that to Hugging Face in order to exploit their package building infrastructure?

You convert GETs into arbitrary requests through some other pivot. I'm not saying that's what happened but this is bog-standard SSRF pentesting, so I'd expect models to be good at it.
I'll add that, because they mostly parrot and learn from pretraining data, they'll do any combination of what was commonly written about in articles, books, and videos. The more they're already used, the more likely they'll use the attack vector or combo.
There's no reason to think that a tool that can find an 0-day in a repo cache can't work out how to make that host send a post request rather than a get request once it has its keys and is able to get it to make arbitrary web calls.
If the vulnerability is purely an open redirect that doesn't work for me.
Clearly there was a hole in the software but I don't think open redirect is the likely initial problem.
Hopefully we will find out for sure in a few days.
