This seems to be an issue with how python (3.10) is interacting with openssl.

The list of supported hash algorithms that we get is not actually supported:



$ python3 -c "import hashlib; a = {(name, hashlib.new(name).digest_size) for name in hashlib.algorithms_available}"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/hashlib.py", line 160, in __hash_new
    return _hashlib.new(name, data, **kwargs)
ValueError: [digital envelope routines] unsupported

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<string>", line 1, in <setcomp>
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/hashlib.py", line 166, in __hash_new
    return __get_builtin_constructor(name)(data)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/hashlib.py", line 123, in __get_builtin_constructor
    raise ValueError('unsupported hash type ' + name)
ValueError: unsupported hash type ripemd160


ripemd160 is in the list:
>>> hashlib.algorithms_available
{'shake_256', 'sha224', 'shake_128', 'sha512_224', 'blake2b', 'ripemd160', 'sha384', 'sha1', 'sha256', 'sha3_384', 'sha3_512', 'md5-sha1', 'sha512', 'whirlpool', 'sm3', 'md4', 'blake2s', 'sha512_256', 'sha3_224', 'sha3_256', 'md5'}

But like many others, unusable:
>>> hashlib.new("md4")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/hashlib.py", line 160, in __hash_new
    return _hashlib.new(name, data, **kwargs)
ValueError: [digital envelope routines] unsupported

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/hashlib.py", line 166, in __hash_new
    return __get_builtin_constructor(name)(data)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/hashlib.py", line 123, in __get_builtin_constructor
    raise ValueError('unsupported hash type ' + name)
ValueError: unsupported hash type md4


The list of hash names begins with this, in hashlib.py:
__always_supported = ('md5', 'sha1', 'sha224', 'sha256', 'sha384', 'sha512',
                      'blake2b', 'blake2s',
                      'sha3_224', 'sha3_256', 'sha3_384', 'sha3_512',
                      'shake_128', 'shake_256')


It then gets potentially augmented with openssl's list:
    import _hashlib
    new = __hash_new
    __get_hash = __get_openssl_constructor
    algorithms_available = algorithms_available.union(
            _hashlib.openssl_md_meth_names)

And indeed, md4 and ripemd160 (and others) come from openssl's list:
>>> _hashlib.openssl_md_meth_names
frozenset({'shake_256', 'sha224', 'shake_128', 'sha512_224', 'blake2b', 'ripemd160', 'sha384', 'sha1', 'sha256', 'sha3_384', 'sha3_512', 'md5-sha1', 'sha512', 'whirlpool', 'sm3', 'md4', 'blake2s', 'sha512_256', 'sha3_256', 'sha3_224', 'md5'})

and it's unusable:
>>> _hashlib.new("md4")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: [digital envelope routines] unsupported


This was nicely summarized in https://github.com/tlsfuzzer/python-ecdsa/issues/285#issuecomment-1040319586

Looks like the openssl legacy provider is not fully loaded: it's there "enough" to spit out the legacy hash names when asked for a list, but when it comes to use it, the hash is unsupported.
