Perhaps disappointingly, it probably refers to "rust" (modern German "Rost"), though it may also be a misspelling for various other names (Ross, "horse," etc.). The meaning might ultimately be different for different people whose names are Rust, depending on how the name developed. Research the family origin a bit if possible and find records of the name in writing as far back as you can; often the spelling will vary, and this may allow a more detailed interpretation of the name.
