Set CAKE_SECURITY to 'high' in core.php to have the session ID  
regenerated between requests. This makes it much harder for someone  
to hijack sessions.

Besides this, I'm pretty sure there are php.ini settings that help in  
avoiding hijack problems (trans_sid comes to mind). If the ID can  
only come from the cookie, it would be harder to hijack.
