No intuition necessary

> The surprising existence of universal perturbations reveals important geometric correlations among the high-dimensional decision boundary of classifiers. It further outlines potential security breaches with the existence of single directions in the input space that adversaries can possibly exploit to break a classifier on most natural images.

The paper unpacks that explanation pretty well along with actual pictures and how they are related to the classification boundary.
