I agree with Felix. I found libtommath issue in dropbear several months before. I can confirm the issue fixed by upgrading libtommath and libtomcrypt. The update is already done by upstream, but not released yet.
You can try a CI-successfully-built commit from https://github.com/mkj/dropbear and see if the dropbear issue still exists.
