Help me fix my wiggling cofee table

I brought a summit coffe table:

When I was assemblying it,I accidently drilled the screw in too far in.

Now one of the side of the coffe table is wiggling and it comming out.

Anyone have an idea on how to fix it?

Here is a picture of the problem:

What is this super a mart?

Basically I would add another screw, to stabilize it, and add some wood puddy. To cover. You'll have to find the right color

HI @theimedic

It is a chain of furniture stores in Australia ;-)

Also did you mean putty or is it puddy in the U.S.A?

I did mean to write putty. I was likely laughing while watching Brooklyn 99

Hi,

If you never wish to dismantle it, use "liquid nails" to hold all the plugs in and the screw as well. Or perhaps pad out the screwhole with bits of glued (Selleys Aquadhere) timber packing (matches whilst not ideal are useful) to give the screw something to bite into.
