Comment (by datallah):

 It looks like this is the nature of the current state of the Yahoo
 protocol.
 The latest version of the native client also sends the session cookies
 over various unencrypted HTTP connections during normal operation.
 I looked at a few of the cases where this happens and those services are
 not available to access securely (at least not at the equivalent https
 URLs).

 FWIW, the password is actually sent over a secure connection during the
 login process.

 There doesn't appear to be anything to be done about this from our end at
 the moment.
