The class com.google.cloud.storage.spi.v1.HttpStorageRpc in google-cloud-storage provides two methods named open() that return the location header from the HTTP response. Both methods fail to properly close the underlying HTTP response returned from com.google.api.client.http.HttpRequest.

The javadoc on com.google.api.client.http.HttpRequest.execute() states:

Callers should call HttpResponse.disconnect when the 
returned HTTP response object is no longer needed.  
However, HttpResponse.disconnect does not have to be 
called if the response stream is properly closed

However the usage in HttpStorageRpc.open() extracts the location header and returns it directly without closing the http response:

HttpResponse response = httpRequest.execute();
if (response.getStatusCode() != 200) {
   throw buildStorageException(response.getStatusCode(), response.getStatusMessage());
}
return response.getHeaders().getLocation();
