Is install an outdoor grade junction box with the wires taped up inside and an outdoor cover to close it off.

What I would probably do...

Make sure the wire nuts are on tight. Tape them up real good with electrical tape. Useing a happer, enlarge the existing hole enough to shove the wires inside the wall. Get some Stucco patch and a spakeling knife from the local hardware store. Patch the hole and paint.
