What you describe above are two independent problems. The purple or green along very high contrast borders is known as "bloom". Its primarily a function of the camera sensor response to severe contrast junctions and it is often difficult remedy as it is generally fully saturated in one or two colour channels. CA is a function of the lens and can generally be minimized to the point that it's no longer visible using RAW tools such as PS CS RAW or in a RGB image format using PanoTools or similar with generally reasonable results.
