This involves distributing web exploits in a asynchronous manner to

evade signature detection. Similar to TCP fragmentation attacks, which
 
are still an issue in current IDS/IPS products, This attack vector
 
involves sending any web exploit in fragments and uses the already
 
existing components within the web browser to reassemble and execute
 
the exploit.<br>
 
 
 
Our presentation will discuss this attack vector used to evade both
 
gateway and client side detection. We will show several proof of
