With the inherent complexities of any modern computer and network system there will often be numerous flaws and problems that can be exploited to either gain certain levels of access to said system or mess up the website/network. In other words, the password is not the only way.
It used to be about hacking in Unix and VAX/VMS, nowadays it's more about hacking using a web browser, an FTP client and a bunch of cgi/Java/HTML script files...
