The original commenter didn't say what happened as a result, just that he caught the contractor subbing out work.
If it were me, I would not renew a contract with someone who sub-contracted work out to someone I don't know and didn't approve without informing me. Whether it is or not, it certainly seems shady, and I don't want to work with people who have violated my trust.
When I was a contractor, our clients usually had a number of clauses in the contract that would have allowed them to end the engagement early for pulling something like that.
And, of course, in the end they could always just have said "go to hell, we're not working with you anymore," and it would come down to who wants to go to court the least.

At minimum, any NDA would have been violated by sharing the company's code and/or access with a third party. Being a contractor doesn't give someone carte blanche authority to pull random people into confidential work. Any reasonable contracting agreement will make it clear that the materials are not to be shared with anyone outside of the contract.
