Unable to import: Unsupported SSH key
I'm unable to import a RSA key. The message is this:
It's a 2048 bit RSA key, generated a few years ago. It's valid for the Windows ssh client, as well as for Linux openssh.

I have a similar issue. But when I enter the passphrase, I get:
We were unable to decrypt your SSH key. Try a different passphrase or select a new SSH key.
The key is encrypted using AES-128-CBC
I verified the password and obtained the decrypted key by running
$ openssl rsa -text -in id_rsa
When I copy the decrypted private key to clipboard and import from there, I get the same error as OP about unsupported key type.
The publicExponent for my key is also 37. It's a very old key of mine that was generated by PuTTY probably around 15+ years ago, and I mostly avoid using it where possible, so I should probably look at replacing it for the few remaining places where Ed25519 or ECDSA still aren't supported.
