Memory safety is a very small concern for most cryptographic implementations (e.g Side Channel attacks). Rust solves essentially none of the other concerns.

IIRC SHA3's reference implementation had an integer overflow in a counter that made finding collisions trivial, as it meant that some blocks of the input weren't considered.
