What potential pitfalls should be considered when setting cookies in Curl using PHP?

When setting cookies in Curl using PHP, it is important to consider potential security risks such as cookie tampering and cross-site scripting attacks. To mitigate these risks, make sure to properly sanitize and validate any user input before setting cookies. Additionally, consider setting the "secure" and "httponly" flags on cookies to prevent them from being accessed by malicious scripts.

// Set a cookie with secure and httponly flags
setcookie("cookie_name", "cookie_value", time() + 3600, "/", "example.com", true, true);
