If you're paid then sure. Otherwise... It depends.

Is a doctor doing volunteer work still obligated to wash their hands between patients?

Is a food pantry giving away free food obligated to check expiration dates and make sure the food is properly sealed?

Volunteer work absolutely has obligations, and I do not know why software volunteers are exempt from any responsibility unless they are being paid.

If you do not want to do the volunteer work in a safe way, please hand off the job to a volunteer willing to do so.
