Please don't drag Rust into needless controversies like this. Rust does improve the situation. But not even the language developers will make such bold claims.
To begin with, memory safety errors aren't the only source of security bugs. The simplest example is an SQL injection attack. Besides, almost all Rust programs contain hidden unsafe code. You can check the standard library if you don't believe me. Memory safety in Rust depends on verification of those unsafe interfaces. The chance of having such bugs is pretty low since they are widely reviewed (this is the point of Rust unsafe). But such errors do occur sometimes and are reported from time to time.
