Actually, yes. I work in the IT field. If I described directly typing an unlinked URL into the address bar as a hack to any of my peers, they'd properly laugh right in my face.
If someone tried entering passwords on a login and were able to eventually log in, many would call this a "hack" or someone "Hacked" the account.
