Hello,

Could you perhaps give the URL of the page that was hacked?

I'm pretty sure you don't have a security risk of any kind. The webpage you visited may have been hacked, but that should not affect your computer. If you didn't click on any other links on the hacked page or downloaded anything from it, you should be safe.
