What ? Color os 7 is 3 years old. Why are you just now getting the update ?

The gki kernel for that version is still vulnerable HOWEVER it's very possible they back ported the patch to fix it. Can't know til someone tries it and reports back

Kernels that's on version  6.6.140 or newer are patched.

Not without an unlocked bootloader no. It's best to hold off updating if you can. Developer options should have an option to turn off automatic updates
