Please tell me how Rust introduces more possibilities for remote code execution vulnerabilities (the most severe). We're not talking about errors as a whole here.

The only RCE classes unique to memory-safe languages that come to mind are, like, dynamic deserialization vulnerabilities (like the Rails one) and remote includes (like PHP). Neither of these are applicable to Rust.
