Well, Sig based detection is that that sig based. So I am sure that new attacks or old attacks may be able to bypass most IDS/IPS with various techinques. But no IDS or IPS system is perfect. No firewall or AV is perfect. We are talking about protection - nothing is 100% secure. Blocking the basic SQL injection attack is better than nothing at all.
