Try tightening the nut as much as possible, otherwise, replace the shaft.

You could re-tap a smaller thread and secure the wiper arm with a smaller nut to suit the new thread.

Forget my last post. Just re-read you're original post ( properly this time ).
If I were you I'd just get another wiper arm from a scrappy.
