+Subject: commands/menuentry: Fix quoting in setparams_prefix()
+
+Commit 9acdcbf32542 (use single quotes in menuentry setparams command)
+says that expressing a quoted single quote will require 3 characters. It
+actually requires (and always did require!) 4 characters:
+
+ str: a'b => a'\''b
+ len: 3 => 6 (2 for the letters + 4 for the quote)
+
+This leads to not allocating enough memory and thus out of bounds writes
+that have been observed to cause heap corruption.
+
+Allocate 4 bytes for each single quote.
+
+Commit 22e7dbb2bb81 (Fix quoting in legacy parser.) does the same
+quoting, but it adds 3 as extra overhead on top of the single byte that
+the quote already needs. So it's correct.
+
+Fixes: 9acdcbf32542 (use single quotes in menuentry setparams command)
+Fixes: CVE-2021-20233
