The implementation of sessions via cookies in webpy is just as "secure" as many
other implementations: A cookie is set with a randomly generated id that points
to a source containing a dictionary. If you use database storage for the
sessions or do not use the file storage within a publicly accessible directory,
that is "secure enough" for most cases. All other security measures one could
take (to prevent "session riding") are design decisions that affect the usage of
your web site.

So I don't think there are any problems with session security.
