The relevant "User Product" is the computer that would be running the GPLv3 code, not the CD-ROM, which is just a distribution medium. Even if you were to argue that the CD-ROM is also a "User Product", that is not a problem, as GPLv3 says: "But this requirement does not apply if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has been installed in ROM)".
