The screws and holes have stripped out of our ceiling where the tv/wire box above tv. What can be used in the holes that will harden enough to put new screws in to secure the box?
Thanks
A bit of JB Weld or similar epoxy in the stripped holes. After it hardens, drill through with a bit a couple of sizes smaller than the screws. Then screw together. If you want it to stay forever, put a tiny dab of epoxy on the screw threads.

Thank you!
Further to DavidM. Several years ago, I fell hard for cyanoacrylate (CA) glue, not the crazy glue watered down version in the 2ml size, but the '200ml' size with spray activator. I found it great for filling holes etc. With the activator, instant gratification! Just a word about certain plastics (like the bottle the CA glue comes in) that don't glue well. Sand the area and wipe down with acetone (or rubbing alcohol) works wonders. GK
Thank you!
