This is expected behavior, at least that is what I believe. The problem is
going to lie in your certificate and ColdFusion, but essentially it sounds
like Adobe has closed a security hole. As the session should not persist
from non secure to secure and back again, they should be seen as two
different sessions.

Imagine if someone hacked the non SSL site, they would then have all the
information needed to get anything out of the SSL connection. I will admit
to not having done too much with SSL, but from what I have done, I think
the behavior you are now caught with is a closed security risk Adobe fixed
in ColdFusion 10.

But I am going from a serious lack of knowledge here.
