We leak memory if the allocations for 'new_param->name' or 'new_param->value' fail. We also do a lot of variable assignments that are completely pointless if the allocations fail. So, let's move the allocations before the assignments and also make sure that we free whatever was allocated to one if the allocation for another fails.
