I may differ from some, but I personally do not put up with office politics.
I hate office politics as well. It's why I left the big corporate world where you're expected to play it and those that play it best are rewarded.

I would have a very straight conversation with him on what just happened and make sure he has a clear understanding of who the boss is.
But doing this betrays the trust of his boss who told him on a personal level. Doing that potentially poisons a good relationship over something rather petty. And I only say petty because his boss took his side.
Sure, it's somewhat playing politics but you gotta do what you gotta do.

Yep. Don't betray the trust of your boss, and definitely avoid anything that can be construed as retaliatory.

True, each situation is different. I would still lean to talking it out with the employee. You cannot reward actions like that.
