<upd_detl>i don't think these are quite the same
=====
矯正 is more broadly 'correction' (e.g., pronunciation, tooth alignment as in daijisen's examples:「発音を―する」「歯列―」) though also 'correction' as in 'correctional facility'
=====
匡正 refers specifically to fixing the error in one's ways, e.g., meikyo:
誤りなどを正しい状態に改め直すこと。
「乱れた道徳を━する」</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>It's a fine point. The "ベストアンサー" above summarizes it:
「矯正(きょうせい)」......欠点をなおし、正しくすること。
「匡正(きょうせい)」......誤りをただしなおすこと。
I'll bring that out in the glosses.</upd_detl>
