Hi Dirk, It was unclear to me to which extent it is a kernel/security patch vs (r)Java issue.
In any case, this is really problematic for me as it prevents me de facto from running some key R packages for my daily work. I'll post again if I see some solution (other than downgrading the kernel) somewhere. Meanwhile, any suggestions for a fix is welcome.

Reading the links you providing it also becomes clear that this is not an issue with rJava, or Debian -- it is Java, interacting with the kernel. For now, I would suggest following those discussions.
