            Bug ID: 3233
           Summary: Error loading key ".ssh/id_rsa": error in libcrypto
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 8.4p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Windows 10
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: ssh-add
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org

Hi,

i have an issue with latest openssh-8.4p1.
My RSA ssh key which is quite old and can't be handled with ssh tools.

[tpg at tpg-virtualbox .ssh]$ ssh-add
Error loading key "/home/tpg/.ssh/id_rsa": error in libcrypto

At first i thought culprit may be OpenSSL3 so i filled issue upstream
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/13443, during the discussion
it looks like it may be on OpenSSH side. I was trying to track some
potential commits but did not found anything relevant.

Ofcourse ssh-keygen -t rsa works an with that new key ssh-add also
works.

My system information:
Distribution: OpenMandriva Cooker
kernel-5.9.8
glibc-2.32
libxcrypt-4.4.17
LLVM-11.x
By default in this distro everything is compiled with LLVM/clang and
linke with LLVM/lld

[tpg at tpg-virtualbox .ssh]$ rpm -qa | grep openssl
openssl-3.0.0-0.alpha8.1.x86_64
[tpg at tpg-virtualbox .ssh]$ rpm -qa | grep openssh
openssh-8.4p1-2.x86_64
