Laravel 7 - No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource

I know this is a very common problem and there is a lot of other questions about it, however, I don't know what to do anymore. I have upgraded my Laravel API application from 5.8 to 7.10.3 and now I'm facing this CORS issue that didn't happen before. Laravel 7 already provides the fruitcake/laravel-cors package and this is my configuration (default config) in config/cors.php:

'paths' => ['api/*'],
'allowed_methods' => ['*'],
'allowed_origins' => ['*'],
'allowed_origins_patterns' => [],
'allowed_headers' => ['*'],
'exposed_headers' => [],
'max_age' => 0,
'supports_credentials' => false,

Basically every origin, headers and methods are allowed. I've even tried to add these lines to bootstrap/app.php but it won't worked:

header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods: *');
header('Access-Control-Allow-Headers: *');

My frontend is built with VueCli 3 and I didn't make any changes on it, just upgraded Laravel version.

Requests on POSTMAN are working fine. Does anyone have any idea of why this problem is happening?

Full error message:

Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/operacao/cadastrar' from origin 'http://localhost:8080' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

I've found the problem: My request was failing in the $request->validate() method and it was inside a try / catch block with a custom exception handler like this:

try {
    $request->validate(array(...)); //validation was failing
    //code...
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    //This was the problem
    http_response_code(400);
    die($e->getMessage());
}

Just put $request->validate() before try and it worked. Just remembering that validate() has its own exception handler.

I don't know exactly why this was causing a CORS error but I think that's because it was sending the headers before the Access-Control-Allow-Origin etc.

I had a similar issue using REACT and my solution was to add Headers and format my request like this.

axios.request({
      method: "POST",
      url: '<url>',
      data: data,
      headers: {
        'Accept': 'application/json',
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      },
   })
   .then(function (response) {
     <what to do if works>
   })
   .catch((response) => {
    <what to do if it doesn't work>
   })
