H2O2 is a good sanitizer. I wouldn't worry too much about it if it has been stored full of h2o2 and kept in the dark. You may want to sand/file the rust off the needle and do a good flame sterilization on the needle. However, if you autoclave the entire syringe before filling it why would you worry at all? just my $ 0.02

How 'bout just buying some new needles? They are really inexpensive and readily available in most locales.
