CONNECT engine table_type=JDBC error with UPDATE statements having single quotes

If I try to update a JDBC connect table with a string that includes a single quote I get the following error:

(conn:299) Got error 122 'ExecuteUpdate: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Incorrect syntax near 's'. n=-1' from CONNECT) #1296

We are sending the UPDATE statement to MariaDB with a prepared statement if that makes any difference.
