Headlight Bulb burned through the housing???

Noticed my headlight was out so I start checking it out. Looks like the socket the bulb connects in came loose and the bulb melted a path through the lamp housing. Is this only because the hot bulb was not seated correctly and was touching plastic or something else too?

Not sure on the cause but I have a matching bucket somewhere.
