Cunningham is in his second spell at Deepale, having departed in 2018 to join Premier League-bound Cardiff City.
He returned to Preston last January on loan until the end of the season, with his permanent exit from Cardiff later agreed.
“I am delighted to get things sorted,” the Galway native said of his new contract. “I have said since I returned to the club that I feel right at home and it is great to get it done before the season finishes.
“We’ve got two games to go, we want to pick up as many points as we can and then I can go home and relax, knowing my future is sorted at the club I love.”
Cunningham, who featured in the Ireland squad under Mick McCarthy in 2019, has four senior caps for his country, the most recent of which came in a February 2013 friendly against Poland.
