Certainly! Here's the refactored code incorporating the suggested changes to fix the memory leaks:

1. In the destructor ~NetworkProtocolHTTP(), a loop is added to iterate over the collect_headers array and free the memory allocated for each header using free() and then set the pointer to nullptr.

2. In the open_dir_handle() function, a free(buf) statement is added before returning true in the case of allocation failure (buf == nullptr).

3. The write_file_handle_get_header() function remains unchanged since the memory leak is now handled in the destructor.

With these changes, the memory allocated for buf in open_dir_handle() will be properly freed in all possible paths of the function, and the memory allocated for the headers in write_file_handle_get_header() will be freed when the NetworkProtocolHTTP object is destroyed.

Please note that this refactored code assumes that the rest of the codebase is properly handling memory management and that there are no other memory leaks present.
