Cookie Not Marked as Secure
Identified Cookie PHPSESSID
Vulnerability Details
Netsparker identified a cookie not marked as secure, and transmitted over HTTPS.
This means the cookie could potentially be stolen by an attacker who can successfully intercept and decrypt the traffic, or following a successful man-in-the-middle attack.
Impact
This cookie will be transmitted over a HTTP connection, therefore if this cookie is important (such as a session cookie), an attacker might intercept it and hijack a victim's session. If the attacker can carry out a man-in-the-middle attack, he/she can force the victim to make an HTTP request to steal the cookie.

Try to add Header always edit Set-Cookie (.*) "$1; HTTPOnly; Secure" to your apache conf (it's for v2.4).
Buy and install an ssl is not enought, you need to configure your server for it.
