I wonder if this works in an electron app (like Slack maybe) displaying it?
Maybe you could intentionally send this link to someone shown as inactive on Slack, and have the WSlack webpage preview thing run enough javascript to pop open Zoom with the camera and mic running...
I'd test it myself, but I deleted Zoom and the sneaky localhost web server while I read the article...
It says that the server sends an image with certain dimensions back as an error code, so I wonder what you could do if you served some simple HTML that uses the local server as a meta tag that renders in the preview?
I imagine slack would do that on the client since it’s built on electron.
Unless it requires more than loading a URL.
