Dumb stuff in Rust has to be explicitly marked with unsafe. Meaning if you review the code you have to focus on only a couple of lines instead of the whole project.
You can of course still write lots of other bugs in Rust, but C-style buffer overflows are impossible in Rust, which eliminates the majority of security issues.

But it’s harder and easier to spot.
You’ll never be 100% safe, but a proper lock is better than a “plz no steal” note.
