It would seem that session_set_cookie_params will still set a cookie via HTTP, even if the secure parameter is true. So even if your site uses HTTPS/SSL to communicate sensitive data, if the initial session cookie was set by PHP's session module via HTTP, an attacker listening on the wire could easily spoof a visitor's cookie and gain access to their session.
