Firewall says Firefox changed code signature and became suspicious

Hi I'm running Firefox 78.15esr on Mac OS 10.11.6 El Capitan.

My firewall (LittleSnitch 4.5.2) suddenly denied any connections attempts by Firefox because the code signature of the process has changed and become invalid.

I can force the Firewall to either disable Identity Check on Firefox or Accept Modification of signature. Both actions are quite unsafe, unless Mozilla acknowledges such changes have actually been made and Firewall's warning can be safely disregarded.

I submit screenshots of the warning

Regards
