Issue: Older datasets throwing safety errors with 2.21.0
State: closed
Author: alvations

### Describe the bug

The dataset loading was throwing some safety errors for this popular dataset `wmt14`. 

[in]:

```
import datasets

# train_data = datasets.load_dataset("wmt14", "de-en", split="train")
train_data = datasets.load_dataset("wmt14", "de-en", split="train")
val_data = datasets.load_dataset("wmt14", "de-en", split="validation[:10%]")
```


[out]:

```
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    637             security = BlobSecurityInfo(

    639             )
    640         self.security = security

KeyError: 'safe'
```


### Steps to reproduce the bug

See above.

### Expected behavior

Dataset properly loaded.

### Environment info

version: 2.21.0

Comments:
I am also getting this error with this dataset: https://huggingface.co/datasets/google/IFEval

Me too, didn't have this issue few hours ago.

same observation. I even downgraded `datasets==2.20.0` and `huggingface_hub==0.23.5` leading me to believe it's an issue on the server.

any known workarounds?


Not a good idea, but commenting out the whole security block at `/usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages/huggingface_hub/hf_api.py` is a temporary workaround:

```
        #security = kwargs.pop("security", None)
        #if security is not None:
        #    security = BlobSecurityInfo(
        #        safe=security["safe"], av_scan=security["avScan"], pickle_import_scan=security["pickleImportScan"]
        #    )
        #self.security = security
```


Uploading a dataset  to Huggingface also results in the following error in the Dataset Preview:
```
The full dataset viewer is not available (click to read why). Only showing a preview of the rows.
'safe'
Error code:   UnexpectedError
Need help to make the dataset viewer work? Make sure to review [how to configure the dataset viewer](link1), and [open a discussion](link2) for direct support.
```
I used jsonl format for the dataset in this case. Same exact dataset worked previously.

Same issue here. Even reverting to older version of `datasets` (e.g., `2.19.0`) results in same error:

```python
>>> datasets.load_dataset('allenai/ai2_arc', 'ARC-Easy')

File "/Users/lucas/miniforge3/envs/oe-eval-internal/lib/python3.10/site-packages/huggingface_hub/hf_api.py", line 3048, in <listcomp>
    RepoFile(**path_info) if path_info["type"] == "file" else RepoFolder(**path_info)
  File "/Users/lucas/miniforge3/envs/oe-eval-internal/lib/python3.10/site-packages/huggingface_hub/hf_api.py", line 534, in __init__
    safe=security["safe"], av_scan=security["avScan"], pickle_import_scan=security["pickleImportScan"]
KeyError: 'safe'
```

i just had this issue a few minutes ago, crawled the internet and found nothing. came here to open an issue and found this. it is really frustrating. anyone found a fix?

hi, me and my team have the same problem

Yeah, this just suddenly appeared without client-side code changes, within the last hours.

Here's a patch to fix the issue temporarily:
```python
import huggingface_hub
def patched_repofolder_init(self, **kwargs):
    self.path = kwargs.pop("path")
    self.tree_id = kwargs.pop("oid")
    last_commit = kwargs.pop("lastCommit", None) or kwargs.pop("last_commit", None)
    if last_commit is not None:
        last_commit = huggingface_hub.hf_api.LastCommitInfo(
            oid=last_commit["id"],
            title=last_commit["title"],
            date=huggingface_hub.utils.parse_datetime(last_commit["date"]),
        )
    self.last_commit = last_commit


def patched_repo_file_init(self, **kwargs):
    self.path = kwargs.pop("path")
    self.size = kwargs.pop("size")
    self.blob_id = kwargs.pop("oid")
    lfs = kwargs.pop("lfs", None)
    if lfs is not None:
        lfs = huggingface_hub.hf_api.BlobLfsInfo(size=lfs["size"], sha256=lfs["oid"], pointer_size=lfs["pointerSize"])
    self.lfs = lfs
    last_commit = kwargs.pop("lastCommit", None) or kwargs.pop("last_commit", None)
    if last_commit is not None:
        last_commit = huggingface_hub.hf_api.LastCommitInfo(
            oid=last_commit["id"],
            title=last_commit["title"],
            date=huggingface_hub.utils.parse_datetime(last_commit["date"]),
        )
    self.last_commit = last_commit
    self.security = None

    # backwards compatibility
    self.rfilename = self.path
    self.lastCommit = self.last_commit


huggingface_hub.hf_api.RepoFile.__init__ = patched_repo_file_init
huggingface_hub.hf_api.RepoFolder.__init__ = patched_repofolder_init
```


Also discussed here:
https://discuss.huggingface.co/t/i-keep-getting-keyerror-safe-when-loading-my-datasets/105669/1

i'm thinking this should be a server issue, i mean no client code was changed on my end. so weird!

As far as I can tell, this seems to be happening with **all** datasets that use RepoFolder (probably represents most datasets on huggingface, right?)

this doesn't seem to work!

In case you are using Colab or similar, remember to restart your session after modyfing the hf_api.py file

No need to modify the file directly, just monkey-patch.

I'm now more sure that the error appears because the backend expects the api code to look like it does on `main`. If `RepoFile` and `RepoFolder` look about like they look on main, they work again.

If not fixed like above, a secondary error that will appear is 
```
    return self.info(path, expand_info=False)["type"] == "directory"
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    "tree_id": path_info.tree_id,
               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'RepoFolder' object has no attribute 'tree_id'
```


We've reverted the deployment, please let us know if the issue still persists!

thanks @muellerzr!
