The page titled "Prescriptions for Applications that are Vulnerable to the
Adaptive Chosen Ciphertext Attack on PKCS #1 v1.5" at URL
 http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/pkcs1/prescriptions.html

is not a complete explanation, but if you read it and start following the
links from there you should find what you want to know. There are links to
various articles on PKCS#1, and there is some explanation of rationale in
the section on OAEP in the PKCS#1 v2.1 standard.
