dwn – a docker pwn tool manager experiment

This post introduces dwn, an experimental Python wrapper around Docker that provides compose-like "plans" tailored for offensive security workflows, enabling context-aware volume mounts, dynamic port mappings without restarts (via a helper socat container and a dedicated Docker network), and convenient execution of tools like nginx, Metasploit, sqlmap, crackmapexec, and Semgrep. It walks through defining and running plans, attaching TTY sessions where needed, and persisting artifacts to the current working directory, positioning dwn as a lightweight, flexible "docker-compose for hackers" available on GitHub.
