v5 CHDs use the underlying LZMA compression, which is still not great code but is generally considered trustworthy (it's been adopted a lot of places in Linux, for instance - .tar.xz files are a thing).
The well-known multithreading issue with chdman is not related to LZMA to our knowledge - I believe it actually even happens with -c none.
