Udinese missed Antonio Di Natale, the league top scorer on 26 goals, and the fast Alexis Sanchez upfront, but still displayed good tactics and ran minor risks at the San Paolo stadium.
Ex-Napoli forward Denis had an early chance with a nasty drive that met the prodigious save from Morgan De Sanctis.
Edinson Cavani twice fired wide by the left post as he tried to draw level on goals with Di Natale, but Napoli only created another first-half chance when Samir Handanovic bravely deflected a flick from Ezequiel Lavezzi.
An impressive drive from the distance from Inler put Udinese one up 10 minutes after the break and Denis secured the win six minutes later with a flawless chest control and a smashing drive into the far corner.
Napoli's reaction produced a bar-shaking header from Christian Maggio before Uruguayan Cavani had a spot kick saved and substitute Giuseppe Mascara flicked home a late consolation goal.
The Udine guests had Maurizio Domizzi sent off for protesting after a foul that was sanctioned with the penalty.
