Sure, but I am asking if this can be modded to gain unauth access to the webcam.

The 'allow getusermedia' policy is handled by the browser, not javascript.

It's possible that some day there will be a browser bug for bypassing it, but you can't just write javascript code that says "don't ask for permission".

Nowadays the majority of webcams also hard-wire their 'on' light, so the user would at least get an indication that the webcam is suddenly recording.

Possibly if someone managed to include it on a page you had already given permission.

I don't know if how you'd sent it somewhere with the same origin policy in place.

nope, the "use webcam" permission is per "getUserMedia" call, so 2 getUserMedia calls = 2 allowbar popups.
