The problem is that you're calling ->header() on a Response object that doesn't have that function (the Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\BinaryFileResponse class). The ->header() function is part of a trait that is used by Laravel's Response class, not the base Symfony Response.

Fortunately, you have access to the headers property, so you can do this:

$response = $next($request);

$response->headers->set('Access-Control-Allow-Origin' , '*');
$response->headers->set('Access-Control-Allow-Methods', 'POST, GET, OPTIONS, PUT, DELETE');
$response->headers->set('Access-Control-Allow-Headers', 'Content-Type, Accept, Authorization, X-Requested-With, Application');

return $response;
