Play in v-brake

Hello everyone,

My bike's v-brakes (Shimano M422's front and rear) have developed a pretty bad lateral play (see video below).
After taking one of the brake arms off the bike, I noticed that the play was caused by the bushing and had nothing to do with the actual spindle arm on the fork itself. Is there anything I can do to repair the brakes (even temporarily)?

Thanks!
