The exploits are all to do with holes in the browser plugin. As long as you don't run random applets on the web you should be fine. Java on the desktop has no major problems that aren't common to any desktop software.

// Edit: in other words to be safe, disable java in the browser. That is however all completely unrelated to multibit.

Yup. If you use Chrome and I think also Firefox then the Java plugin is already disabled for you.
