I was promped today by a browsing tab to update my Firefox browser. However, when I read the URL, it became a concern whether or not it was a valid update. I have a screenshot of the webpage. Can you please tell me if firefox-patch.js is valid from eepahuntweeps.net (1.1 kb)?

No that is a scam.

Firefox doesn't use a "patch" for updates. A new version is installed when something needs to be "fixed".
