Khan did it twice.
The Klingons got mouse trapped, though.

William T. Riker shows up on Deep Space Nine and proceeds to charm the crew, especially Major Kira. She takes him on a tour of the station and its new ship, the Defiant. Once aboard, he pulls a phaser on her, stuns her, fakes a warp-core breach and steals the ship.

On stardate 4513.3, the Federation starship Enterprise, under the command of Captain James T. Kirk, is hijacked by an android who has been posing as Mr. Norman (Richard Tatro), a recently assigned crewman. The android seals off engineering and redirects the ship to an unknown planet at Warp 7. Any attempt to undo his tampering will likely destroy the ship. The planet is discovered to be populated with other androids.
When the crew arrives at the planet, Captain Kirk discovers that Harcourt Fenton Mudd, an outlaw whom Kirk has encountered previously, is the apparent "ruler" of the androids. Having previously escaped incarceration for his crimes, Mudd explains that he crashed his spaceship on the planet, and the androids took him in. He says that they are very accommodating, but refuse to let him go. During his stay, Mudd has acquired thousands of android women as servants as well as an android version of his estranged wife Stella (Kay Elliot), which nags Mudd incessantly until being commanded to "shut up", at which point she deactivates.
The androids tell Kirk they were built by a people from the Andromeda Galaxy, but their creators were destroyed by a supernova, and the robots were left to fend for themselves. First Officer Spock (Leonard Nimoy) discovers there are over 200,000 of these androids that may be controlled by some as yet unseen central operator.
Mudd orders the androids to beam up to the Enterprise to fetch the rest of the crew. The crew are rounded up and brought down; Ensign Chekov (Walter Koenig) finds a pampered existence by the service of hundreds of beautiful android women to be not such a bad idea. Even Lt. Uhura (Nichelle Nichols) is impressed when she finds that she can live forever in an immortal android body. In the meantime, Mudd plots to escape by taking over the now-deserted Enterprise, but is stopped from carrying out his plans by the androids.

As Enterprise drifts in space, an unknown alien cruiser scans the ship, then docks with it. As part of an unconventional and criminal first contact, two Ferengi, Muk and Grish, board wearing breathing filters, and the crew appear to have been knocked unconscious. In Engineering, the two locate and deactivate a gas-machine that the Starfleet crew brought up from the surface of a nearby moon. Unknown to the intruders, Commander Tucker is still conscious and makes his way to Engineering and uses the ship's sensors to monitor the aliens as they plunder the ship.
Captain Archer is confined in Cargobay, and the aliens are unconvinced that Enterprise carries no currency or valuable materials. They set-off to find the vault themselves, leaving Krem and Archer to transfer the loot. Archer sees Tucker and sends him to the launch-bay to retrieve the Ferengi's hypospray. Doing so, Tucker revives Sub-Commander T'Pol, and they try to find a way to stop the Ferengi. She assumes the gas-machine was intentionally placed on the surface as a 'Trojan Horse'. In Sickbay, three of the four Ferengi search for the non-existent vault, and T'Pol uses a PADD to distract and then start an argument between them.
In Engineering, Archer tries to negotiate with Krem, who is tempted when Archer says that he will throw in T'Pol. In Archer's quarters, Muk and Grish try interrogating Porthos, Archer's pet Beagle. Muk goes to the launch-bay and finds Tucker, who escapes, but Ulis subdues him with his electro-whip. The Ferengi, Archer and Trip meet in the launch-bay where Archer plays along with Tucker's deception about "the vault".

And the Empire's flagship was destroyed by a naive farm kid, a scruffy scoundrel and a ghost. Or was it destroyed by really poor engineering? Hard to decide.
